About Christina

I've been in the room.

Over seventeen years building HR programs and 18 years in operations management that actually changed how people worked. Now I'm helping other HR leaders do the same with AI.

How Spire & Soul started

I didn't start out planning to build a consultancy.

I spent the better part of two decades inside organizations going through the kind of change that doesn't make headlines but defines everyone's daily work. New systems. New leaders. New expectations. The work that lives between the announcement and the result — that's where I've spent my career.

For the last several years, I've been leading enterprise HR Corporate and Learning & Development inside a large, fast-moving organization — including the development of an enterprise AI Lab. That work put me face to face with the question every HR leader is now being asked, often without warning: what are we doing about AI?

What I noticed — across my own team and the dozens of HR leaders I've talked to in the last 18 months — is that the gap isn't tools. There's no shortage of AI tools. The gap is the playbook.

Spire & Soul exists to close that gap.

What I stand for

AI should make work more human, not less.

When it doesn't, I say so. Some AI projects shouldn't happen — and the most valuable thing an HR leader can sometimes do is name that.

Practitioner truth over influencer hype.

No fear-mongering. No "AI will replace you" headlines. No fake urgency. The work is hard enough without theatrics.

Permission-giving over performance.

Most HR leaders are quietly anxious about AI. My work makes it safe to be a beginner — even (especially) when you're the one expected to lead.

Patient teaching over flashy tutorials.

People don't need 10x productivity hacks. They need the language for the conversations they've been avoiding.

Premium positioning, accessible price points.

Done well doesn't have to mean expensive. But it never means cheap.

A note, from me

If you've gotten this far, thank you. The fact that you're reading the about page tells me you care about working with people you actually trust — and so do I.

If we end up working together — through a product, a workshop, or an engagement — you'll find a person who is patient with the questions, honest about the limits, and respectful of the fact that you know your organization better than I ever will.

That's the deal.
