Background

Crysta has global HR experience having worked with multinational companies with employees in Canada, Europe and Asia. Prior to joining ConnectsUs, Crysta spent 9 years with a successful high tech company in Vancouver and was an integral part in its growth from 30 to 105 employees. As a sole HR practitioner in the company, Crysta understands pragmatism, and resourcefulness. Most importantly, she understands HR for small business - what works and what doesn't.   

Crysta is CPHR-certified, and when she's not working, can be found raising her family, reading, baking, and staying current in the field of HR. 

  • "...Easy to use and cost-effective.  ConnectsUs HR toolkits has all the tools I need for developing my HR policies and procedures, and company information."

  • I just wanted to write to say that ConnectsUs HR™ for Consultants is truly a gift. I've been searching for this type of support with other service providers with no luck. The templates and Resource Center you have created are so helpful, and provide a comprehensive menu of topics, best practices and well-written content that would have taken months to create from scratch. In most cases, my clients don't want to wait long to see results. I am very thankful to have found your product that makes me look so good!

    Thank you again!

    A new and thankful customer
