Tiffany Harris, President

Senior Human Resources Consultant

Tiffany Harris has lived almost her entire life in the central valley. Her love for human resources came by happenstance as she always believed she would be a counselor of some sort. She received her Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and after shadowing a number of different options prior to earning her Master’s Degree, realized a counseling path was not her true passion.

It was during this time she discovered human resources. She went on to receive a Master’s Degree in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. After traveling for 7 years throughout the United States following her husband during his career in football, she settled back down where it all started, in Tulare, California. She and her husband Bryce have 3 children (all boys), who are their “sonshines” even on cloudy days!!

In 2017, she and her business partner started an HR consulting business and in 2019 purchased an organization that did the same consultation. Pacific Employers was the name of that business. It came with a strong reputation in the central valley, serving the business’s HR needs for over 50 years. Since 2019, Pacific Employers has created a full-service division to provide a more hands-on experience to clients, and has just launched a payroll division in an effort to help serve employers with their payroll concerns as the state of California is of the most stringent in the country for wage and hour obligations. In her spare time, she loves to spend time outdoors with her kiddos, work out with her husband and cook. She wears a number of different hats, but her favorite one is mama. 

Steve McCartha, Vice President

Director of Sales and Marketing

Steve grew up in the Central Valley and joined the United States Air Force shortly after graduating high school in Lemoore. After serving honorably in the Air Force for ten years, Steve moved into the private sector and determined to help people with their dreams and improve the world one person at a time. With experience in sales, marketing, and human resources, Steve opened True Legacy Consulting and purchased Pacific Employers with Tiffany Harris. To polish his experience and natural ability, he completed his degree in Organizational Leadership from Fresno Pacific and finished his Master of Business Administration at Fresno State. Blessed with three wonderful kids and amazing wife Lynn, Steve loves spending his time with family or playing golf.
