Who We Are
My name is Deja Martin, and I created The Talent Operations Studio to deliver an elevated, concierge-level approach to talent acquisition and operational strategy for small businesses. With deep experience supporting nationwide teams across corporate and field operations, I bring a refined, strategic lens to every stage of the hiring journey.
I specialize in building scalable systems, strengthening talent brands, and providing fractional recruiting support that mirrors executive-level partnership. My mission is simple: to help business owners operate with clarity, hire with confidence, and grow with intention.
When your people strategy rises, your entire business rises with it.
