I answer my own email. Promise.

Hi, I'm Makayla.

I'm a systems thinker. Hand me one piece of a puzzle and I want to see the whole picture.

I started out wanting to teach high school English. Then I found HR and worked my way through recruiting, HR generalist work, talent, and learning.

Along the way I kept building the systems everyone needed and nobody had time to build. Now I build them for small business owners and for the people inside growing companies.

Most workplace systems are built like monuments: big, finished, and quietly ignored.

I build mine like a good draft. Start small, watch how people really use it, and keep improving. That's what Go Unfinished means.

Why "unfinished"

Unfinished means adaptable, in motion, and open to improvement. You start before everything is tidy, learn from what happens, and keep adjusting.

You own whatever I build, and you can keep improving it long after we're done.

I have an MBA from Assumption College and an Instructional Design Certificate from the Association for Talent Development.
