It's the most important negotiation of your career —
and no one taught you how.
When you're put on notice of a performance issue or pulled into "a quick chat," you're up against people who do this every week and have a script. Most employees panic, over-explain, or sign too fast — and leave with far less than they should.
Someone on the inside, the whole way through.
Here's what most people miss: your leverage is highest while you're still an employee — not after you've been terminated. The strongest outcomes come from negotiating from the inside, in real time, before you get pigeonholed into a decision or pushed out. That's where I come in.
Tell me what's happening
Fill out the intake form, then we'll get on a fast, confidential call — usually within 24 hours. No judgment, no jargon. I'll tell you what your company is actually doing and why.
Get the playbook
Exactly what to say, what to put in writing, what to never send, how to document, and when to make each move. I'll draft the hard emails with you.
I'm with you in real time
Available 8am–8pm during an active situation, coaching you in real time by text and voice note until it's resolved. When HR and Legal make a move, I know what it means — and what tripped them up. You're never reacting blind.
"For over a decade, I was the person on the other side of that table. I know every move — because I made them, and plotted them with the business."
I spent 12+ years in HR — most recently as a Director at Block, supporting Square's Product and Marketing organizations. Before that, Senior People Partner at Udemy, West Coast People & Culture Lead at Compass (Series B → D), and Talent & HR Strategy at BlackRock. I've worked across tech companies at every stage — from Series B through IPO and post-IPO, including 12,000-person orgs — with my fundamentals built at BlackRock in financial services. The playbook translates to any industry.
Across those roles I sat in on the terminations, mass layoffs, PIPs, severance negotiations, and "quiet exits" — usually on the company's side. I've seen it all. I worked hand-in-hand with employment legal counsel — in-house and external — so I understand how an in-house employment team thinks and measures risk for the company. I know how HR thinks, how risk is calculated, and the exact moments a company gets nervous.
Friends — and friends of friends — started calling me when they found themselves in these troubling situations. The results were consistent enough that I decided to do it for real. Inside Edge is that knowledge, pointed in your direction — working for you to get the best possible outcome based on your goals.
Inside Edge provides coaching and education — not legal advice. When a situation needs a lawyer, I'll tell you, and connect you with one.
