Turning compliance strategy into everyday practice.

A compliance program that looks strong on paper won’t protect your business unless it’s embedded into daily operations. I help compliance leaders bridge strategy and operations—with communications, training, and systems that stick.

You’ve done the hard work: governance is solid, risk areas are mapped, policies are drafted.

But if you’re like most compliance leaders, the question is: now what?

A program that only lives in binders or slide decks won’t deliver impact. Without adoption, compliance can feel like a burden—creating friction, frustrating employees, and leaving real risks unaddressed.

The cost of inaction isn’t just regulatory. It’s cultural, operational, and reputational.

How I can support you

I partner with compliance leaders to operationalize programs, ensuring compliance supports your business instead of slowing it down. That means building trust, driving ethical behavior, and making complex requirements simple.

  • Build compliance into operations with refined policies, procedures, and guidance.

  • Translate expectations into practice through training and communications employees actually use.

  • Strengthen adoption and accountability with behavioral science and change-management tools.

  • Design systems and processes that eliminate friction and make compliance sustainable.

  • Create human-voiced compliance content—from Codes of Conduct and training to blog posts and presentations—that employees actually want to read.

  • Right-size every approach so it fits your organization, your challenge, and your people.

The result: a compliance program that doesn’t just exist—it works, delivering measurable value across your business.

  • I was really struggling with how to make our E&C communications understandable and yet impactful. It was immediately clear that Courtney's passion about compliance communications, work product quality, and her devotion to customer satisfaction makes her a standout.

    — Craig Allen, MJ, MBA, Human Resources Director

  • While not afraid of making new moves, she is the kind of person who will check and re-check and triple-check the motives, consequences, and trade-offs before taking that step—and if it's not the right time, Courtney will let you know in a way that is supportive and respectful.

    — Ryan Rushing, CCEP, Senior UX Designer

  • Courtney is both a creative and responsive powerhouse. Any time I had a new compliance-related communication, presentation, or manage toolkit to build out, Courtney was my first call and she always had a helpful resource or tip to provide. Any client or employer that needs a positive and insightful compliance/communications professional to work with should stop looking and start working with Courtney right away!

  • Courtney is a phenomenal team member. As a compliance officer, she has varied and desirable experience. She is recognized as a peer and thought leader, as is evidenced by the contributions she's made through individual and group level guidance at industry events and conferences.

    — Taylor Edwards, Regional Sales Director

  • Every time I see that Courtney is presenting on a topic, I sign up for that presentation. It doesn't really matter what the topic is - I know that I will enjoy the presentation and walk away more knowledgeable than when I arrived. It takes rare talent to make discussions about compliance analytics and training methodology interesting, and Courtney has that talent. Furthermore, Courtney is just a wonderful person to know. She is always upbeat, positive, and ready to pitch in and help. Everyone just seems more enthused when she is around. That's the kind of person you want on your team.

    — Kasey Ingram, JD, CCEP, Chief Legal and Compliance Officer & Subsidary President

  • Courtney not only cared about producing quality work, but also look to find solutions to resolve any issues. She is very dedicated to her work and was collaborative in her approach, considering all aspects. She also came up with new initiatives to try to enhance compliance at the corporate level and beyond. I highly recommend her for any compliance needs and considerations your business may have.

    — Mica Ashmore, Strategic Business Integration Manager

  • Courtney has taken existing programs and heightened their visibility. In addition, she established a greater awareness of the program and its importance within the company.

Why work with Courtney?

  • Deep compliance expertise: With an M.A. in Applied and Professional Ethics and a CCEP certification, I understand the nuances of ethics, compliance, and regulatory requirements.

  • Engaging, human-centered approach: Compliance doesn’t have to be dry. I craft strategies and materials that are approachable, relatable, and designed to encourage participation—not just passive acknowledgment.

  • Strategic + operational strength: I’ve spent 13+ years advising compliance leaders, launching products, and running the operations of an entire business. That means I know both sides of the challenge: the high-level strategy your board or regulators expect, and the day-to-day execution that drives adoption.

  • Proven impact: I’ve worked with organizations of all sizes—from small, high-risk businesses to Fortune 10 multinationals—helping leaders refine messaging, improve training effectiveness, and create cultures where compliance becomes a natural first choice.

I'm ready to transform my ethics and compliance program.
