We've been in the room
where the hard decisions happen.

Joshua brings nineteen years of business leadership, thirteen years in technology, six years as an entrepreneur, and deep roots in the Texas economic development community. After sitting as an EDC board member and founding the entrepreneurship programming in the region, he built HEART Advisory Group to solve the problem he kept seeing firsthand: growing businesses carrying risk they could not see until it was expensive, and communities without the infrastructure to support entrepreneurs when momentum finally arrived. Joshua holds a degree in Business Administration and combines board-level perspective with operator-level urgency. His work is grounded in earned credibility from building programs, serving institutions, and staying close to the founders and leaders who actually carry the outcomes. When HEART advises your team, you are not getting theory from a slide deck. You are getting judgment forged in the same rooms where budgets, reputations, and timelines collide.

Shar-Day 'Daisy' Edmond is an employment attorney with years of experience as Director of Human Resources for Texas state agencies, a combination that is genuinely rare and genuinely powerful. She understands Human Strategies from both sides of a dispute, and works beyond best-practice checklists. She builds policies, documentation, and manager training that hold up when relationships fracture, regulators ask questions, or a termination turns contentious. For HEART clients, that translates into clarity: your people are treated with dignity, your managers know what "good" looks like on paper, and your business is protected when ambiguity would otherwise invite liability. Shar-Day is direct, meticulous, and relentlessly practical about what will survive contact with the real world.

Nishant Vyas is a Six Sigma certified supply chain expert who has spent years locating fragility inside operations that growing businesses do not know they have until a vendor fails or a timeline slips. Single-source vendors, handshake procurement, missing backup contracts, and informal quality controls are the kinds of exposures that look harmless in a spreadsheet until they are not. Nishant redesigns systems around real constraints, documents decisions so institutional knowledge does not walk out the door, and builds resilience without pretending efficiency is the only goal. His work pairs disciplined analysis with plain-language communication so leadership can act before the emergency call.
