About the author

Sarah Mitchell is a content specialist dedicated to simplifying payroll and HR operations for small and mid-sized businesses. Before joining Payrun, she worked as an HR documentation writer and payroll process consultant, where she crafted compliance checklists, payroll accuracy guides, employee onboarding documents, and internal HR knowledge bases used by SMB teams across various industries.

Her passion for payroll content began when she noticed how frequently small businesses struggled with recurring compliance questions and wage calculation errors — not due to complexity, but due to unclear or inconsistent information. She set out to create content that replaces complexity with clarity and gives SMB operators confidence in their payroll processes.

At Payrun, Sarah develops educational content covering payroll accuracy, wage compliance, HR workflows, and people-first operations. Her writing emphasizes clarity, practicality, and compliance alignment, helping founders and HR teams navigate payroll with ease.

When she’s not writing, Sarah enjoys researching labor policy updates, mentoring early-career HR professionals, experimenting with documentation formats, and exploring Colorado’s mountain trails with her two dogs.
