about
Nice to meet you
I’m Haley — a Harvard‑trained environmental health specialist, former U.S. Navy Environmental Health & Safety Officer, and NYC hospitality operations expert. I built Grade A Health & Safety to give restaurants, hotels, and hospitality groups the kind of protection, clarity, and operational confidence that only comes from deep scientific training and real‑world experience.
My work sits at the intersection of public health, regulatory compliance, and luxury‑level hospitality. I understand the science behind safety, the systems behind smooth operations, and the standards required to protect a brand’s reputation in the most competitive market in the world. Services are available in English and Spanish.

What I Believe
Health & safety isn’t paperwork. It’s not a checklist. It’s not something you “get through” before an inspection.
It’s the backbone of your guest experience, your team’s confidence, and your brand’s longevity.
My philosophy is simple: When your systems are ironclad, your team performs better, your guests feel safer, and your operation earns the A‑grade it deserves.
Why I Built Grade A
After years of working inside NYC hospitality — and years of training in environments where precision is non‑negotiable — I saw the same pattern everywhere:
Operators were expected to meet impossible standards with incomplete information.
They were handed regulations, not solutions. Inspections, not guidance. Consequences, not clarity.
Grade A Health & Safety exists to change that.
I bring the structure of the Navy, the rigor of Harvard, and the practicality of real hospitality operations to help you build systems that actually work — not just on inspection day, but every day.
What I Do
I help hospitality teams:
strengthen their operations
eliminate compliance blind spots
train with intention
prevent violations before they happen
protect their brand at every level
Whether you need a one‑time assessment, a deep operational review, or a long‑term partner who keeps your business inspection‑ready year‑round, I build solutions that fit your reality — not a textbook.
Agencies I have worked with include but are not limited to: US Department of Agriculture, NYDOA, NYCDOHMH, NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection, FDA, NYNJ Port Authority, USFWS, Boston Inspectional Services Department (ISD), NYDOT, OSHA, and many more.
Who I Support
I work with:
restaurants
boutique hotels
private dining groups
multi‑unit hospitality brands
operators who want excellence, not shortcuts
My clients span NYC, the Tri‑State area, and Boston, but the standard I bring is unmistakably New York: fast, precise, and uncompromising.
My Promise
You don’t need to dream about your A‑grade. You don’t need to fear inspections. You don’t need to guess what regulators expect.
I’ll help you build the systems, training, and operational strength to achieve — and maintain — excellence.
Health & safety starts here. And with the right partner, it stays here.
