In relentless pursuit of what if…

Like many of our customers, I experienced workplace trauma that showed me the depths of the human brain and how dark it can get. I had never experienced the darkness before until a coworker subjected me to a racist trope during the summer of 2020, and then refused to promote me for reasons that they could not defend.

The only reason I survived that situation and forced an outcome that worked for me is that I am a subject matter expert in HR. I understand the rules and hold companies accountable for breaking them, but most employees don’t.

I could not accept knowing that people across the country were experiencing this, so I set out to disrupt the HR industry by providing employees access to independent HR support. Along the way, I have spoken to employees across the country and listened to story after story about how the system is broken.

Our flagship brand, Caged Bird HR, was the first puzzle piece in making the world of work more transparent and equitable for all. Our AI tech product, Wrk Receipts, and its AI-powered employee advocate, Jayla, completes it.
