About

I am a Human Resource Leader with a wealth of experience in talent acquisition, learning & development, organisational development, and HR business partnering across the Technology and recruitment sectors. My professional experience spans Canada, Japan, Taiwan, and Singapore and covers APAC, the Americas, and Europe. I am passionate about creating positive work environments that empower employees to grow and develop, both personally and professionally. I am dedicated to helping organisations reach their goals by ensuring their employees feel appreciated and supported. I am continuously seeking out diverse experiences, both personally and professionally, to broaden my horizons and further my personal development. My professional experience has taught me that the key to success lies in having an open mind and being willing to push the boundaries of what we know. By developing an agile mindset and embracing change, I have stayed ahead of the curve and identified new opportunities. Additionally, I have also learned that it is essential to balance innovation with what is currently working well to create even more effective outcomes. Finally, I believe that teamwork makes the dream work, and it is important to hire those who are smarter than you and to value diversity of opinions. My key functional strengths include Employee Engagement, HR Business Partnering, Learning & Development, Organisational Development, Stakeholder Relationship Management, Strategic Leadership, Talent Acquisition, Talent Management, Team Supervision & Development, being detail-oriented, and having effective communication skills.
