Maryellen Stockton
Founder & CEO
I believe that if we hire the right people and we lead them well, we can do amazing work.
Prior to founding Work Well Wherever, I worked in HR as the “Culture Cultivator” for a virtual staffing company and helped build a strong remote company culture. Recognizing the opportunities and benefits of remote work early on, I founded Work Well Wherever in 2019 to help small businesses create a great place to work, regardless of location.
I am a Senior Certified Professional - Society of HR Management (SHRM-SCP), a founding member of The Lola and I serve on the national board for Culture Labx.
I live in Atlanta, GA with my husband Matt and my two kids, George and Winnie. The things that make me happy include coffee, tennis, people, and mountains.
“Every interaction we have with our clients is personalized. We understand the needs of the people and the business.”

“Through multiple coaching sessions Work Well Wherever provided me with the resources I needed to determine what it was that I really wanted. They pushed me where I was being vague which resulted in a clear plan of action. I was provided fabulous support to put the plan into action and develop detailed and professional materials to bring my case (a request for a 25% reduction in hours) to my management team. As a result of this disciplined approach, I not only got the reduced hours I wanted but managed to negotiate a higher pay rate than I originally imagined!”
