Hi, I'm Jenny Herrington!

I am a seasoned Human Resources (HR) professional with over 25 years of experience in HR and training and development. My passion for supporting small business owners led me to establish Herrington Consulting, a boutique HR firm, to guide employers through the complex world of HR.

I hold multiple credentials, including being a Society for Human Resource Management Certified Professional (SHRM-CP), and a certified HR Consultant, HR Business Partner, and Training and Development Specialist and have had the privilege of working with hundreds of small business owners across all 50 states.

I ensure that every employer I partner with is informed and empowered to protect their business and set their team up for success.
