Brian comes to us with a wealth of knowledge:

With 15+ years working in the Fortune 500 and start-up world, Brian has been fortunate enough to gain a tremendous amount of experience in business and people operations. One of his many life-changing experiences was working next to a founder CEO and leading the business from a handful of employees to over 150+ employees and $100MM in revenues. After 5 years of rapid growth, the company failed due to the CEO’s lack of leadership, reckless actions, and disregard for the employees that helped build the company. It is at this reflection point that Brian knew the world of work needed to evolve.

Leveraging his corporate and start-up experience, Brian launched Scaleocity Works to help businesses transform their cultures into the Best Place to Work environment. Brian and the team at Scaleocity works provide HR advisory services, and a full suite of HR solutions, including payroll and innovative HR technologies that improve the employee experience.

Most recently, Brian has launched the Entrepreneur to Employer community for entrepreneurs getting ready to hire employee # 1 and beyond. The membership community is a resource for HR coaching, education, and access to a library of People Operations tools, templates, and workbooks. The Entrepreneur to Employer community has one mission - to help employers Make Mondays Matter!

Last but not least, in an effort to help employers Make Mondays Matter and change the world of work, Brian is also the host of the Entrepreneur to Employer podcast. Each week, Brian publishes an information-packed episode to give employers actionable insights to help them level up their HR operations and business.
