Andy Zelt: Payroll, HR, and AI Operator
25-year payroll and HR operator. AI practitioner. Still building.
Andy founded Axiom Human Resource Solutions in 2011. He's spent 25 years inside payroll and HR — not selling it from the outside, but actually doing the work. Now he's betting that AI changes everything about how HR firms operate, and he's building that future himself.
