About

With over a decade in HR, I’ve worked with teams big and small - from 2000 people to just 50 - and learned that the heart of HR is really about listening, understanding, and connecting the dots between people and purpose. I’ve rebuilt hiring processes from the ground up, designed how we evaluate talent, led culture interviews, and made onboarding more personal using real insights from reference checks. I spend a lot of time in conversations - 1:1s, pulse check-in surveys, performance dialogues - because that’s where the truth of a workplace lives. Policies, frameworks, and systems matter, but what matters more is that they make sense to the people using them. My work is about creating that balance between structure and empathy, between what the business needs and what people need to thrive. At the end of the day, I just want to help people love coming to work a little more.
