About Julissa M.

With over 19 years of experience in HR, consulting, and recruiting, my superpower lies in transforming how mission-driven organizations—particularly nonprofits, social impact ventures, and social justice organizations—approach people operations. As CEO and Principal Consultant at Legacy HR Consulting, I lead a dynamic team that provides HR solutions that go beyond the basics, crafting human-centered, inclusive, and innovative work environments.I view HR as the engine of positive change. My unique strength is the ability to reimagine traditional HR practices, fostering a culture where people come first, and organizations thrive through collaboration, growth, and well-being.My mission is to redefine HR, championing diversity, equity, and inclusion in every interaction. I create environments that drive success by empowering teams with a voice and a true sense of belonging. It’s not just about policies—it’s about impact, evolution, and creating lasting change. I’m driven by continuous learning and the opportunity to collaborate with others who share this forward-thinking vision.
