Writer and maintainer of HR Decision Guide
What I publish on HR Decision Guide
I write HR Decision Guide for founders and operators, HR and benefits teams, payroll practitioners, and accounting teams working through software choices and payroll processes.
The guides explain the decision, the details that can change it, and the evidence needed before moving ahead. Topics range from choosing a provider and planning a migration to handling employee changes, reviewing a payroll run and reconciling the result.
Worked examples and reusable checklists or worksheets give readers a way to apply the explanation to their own task. The resource library is a useful place to find those tools.
Background and operating perspective
My background is in HR and leave-management work that intersects with payroll-adjacent processes, including benefits coordination, effective dates, employee changes and documentation.
That perspective draws attention to the handoff: what was approved, who needs to act next, which date or payroll period applies, and how the team will confirm the intended result.
I bring those operational questions to the writing without presenting the guides as individualized professional advice or implying firsthand testing of every product discussed.

Product features, pricing and requirements can change. The guides use source references to support the discussion, and readers should verify current details before acting.
