About Juli Prizant, President & Founder
At OptiPeople Resources, we believe people are a company’s greatest asset—and that success starts with having the right talent in the right roles, supported by strategies and systems that can grow with the business.
Founded by Juli Prizant, OptiPeople brings over 30 years of experience across HR, talent acquisition, and talent strategy. Juli has partnered with organizations ranging from small businesses to high-growth companies in transformation, helping leaders build the infrastructure, processes, and practices that support long-term success.
Our superpower? Diagnosing root problems, aligning people with purpose, and building systems that scale. From strengthening HR foundations to optimizing hiring processes to shaping people strategies, OptiPeople partners with leaders to attract, retain, and engage top talent—so they can focus on growing their business with confidence.
Whether it’s fractional HR support, executive search, or consulting on scalable people strategies, OptiPeople Resources provides both the expertise and the partnership leaders need to thrive.
When Juli isn’t solving hiring challenges, she’s designing jewelry, wrangling her two Labradors (Otis and Clementine), or connecting over coffee with other business owners who want to get hiring right.
