Meet Our Founder
Amy Cuilla
Founder, Talento HR Partners
With over 20 years of experience as a Human Resources Business Partner (HRBP), I have partnered with startups, mid-sized businesses, and multi-billion-dollar organizations to align people strategy with business goals.
I bring both strategic insight and hands-on execution across HR strategy, recruitment and onboarding, workforce planning and analytics, compliance, employee relations, compensation & benefits, learning and development, and organizational design.
Having worked, in earlier roles, with companies such as FedEx, Mucinex Founder, and many other large, mid-sized, and small companies, I understand how to build practical HR solutions that strengthen businesses while helping to create workplaces where great people want to grow and stay.

Desiree Ordonez
Director, Talent Acquisition, Stellar Energy
Amy taught me everything I know about recruiting. For 8 years I had the blessing of sitting under her leadership where she stretched me, pushed me out of my comfort zone, and developed me into an HR professional, and just loved me well.
