Embrace HR LLC is a Black woman-owned HR consulting firm dedicated to bringing sophisticated corporate solutions to small businesses and start-ups. Founded in 2021 by Hayley Wells (MS, PHR), we believe building a great team shouldn’t feel like a chore.
With a background spanning fast-paced tech and heart-centered nonprofits, Hayley launched Embrace HR to bring a friendly, expert touch to your "people operations." Since then, we’ve partnered with growing teams across the U.S. to bridge the gap between lean operations and high-level strategy—minus the overhead of a full-time executive. Whether we’re untangling compliance, streamlining payroll, or finding your next star hire, our mission is to meet you exactly where you are. We’re here to turn your HR tasks into a people-first culture that helps your business (and your team!) truly thrive.
