About the author
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.

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.
