Meet Tiffany

Founder of Onward & Upward
I spent 25 years inside one of the world's largest companies, building teams and fixing what wasn't working. Then one day, without warning, I was let go.
After nearly a quarter century of above target performance reviews and saying yes to whatever role they needed I was done. Just like that.
But I wasn't finished learning, growing, or helping others be ready for what work or life throws at them. That's why I founded Onward & Upward.
What Makes Me Different
I know what works. I learned by doing and that gives me the benefit of knowing what works versus what "might work." I've worked in every corner of HR - from labor negotiations to workforce analytics to global learning programs. I also spent years alongside small business owners in insurance, recruiting, and retail. Big company structure meets small business hustle.
I tell the truth. I believe kindness is candor. I know what it's like to be championed. I also know what it's like to feel quieted, overlooked, unrecognized, to be moved around without input, to rebuild after everything falls apart. I use my story to help you write yours. I help leaders understand the impact of their choices.
I connect people. It's what I'm known for. If I can't help you directly, I probably know someone who can.
What You'll Get
When you work with me, you get someone who asks the questions you've been avoiding, tells you what you need to hear, and leaves you with something you can use immediately.
I want you to find joy and fulfillment. I want companies to be filled with stronger people, better planning, and a business ready for whatever comes next.
I've lived through some miserable work situations. Let's prevent this from happening to you or your company.
