Effective June 1, 2024, I am moving into a new chapter of my life called retirement.
​
Read on for what I will be doing and how I might still be able to help you.

A New Chapter
March 2024
​
It was August 2001 when Strategic Management Solutions came to be. It has been scary and thrilling, challenging and rewarding, and a bunch of other descriptive terms. For almost 23 years I have offered a variety of human resource services that have supported my clients in their quest for success. In return, I have been rewarded with success in building the business.
​
It is time to open a new chapter. That new chapter is called retirement. Effective June 1st I will officially be retiring from the human resources consulting business. I may, however, come out of retirement very temporarily to do two things I love doing (1) Training and (2) Workplace Investigations.
​
However, it won't be often as I will be spending time with my 93-year-old Mom and pursuing a variety of personal interests without work getting in the way!
