Amazon strives to be Earth's most customer-centric company and is not an average company. As a Program Manager focused on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Tech Talent Acquisition, I am definitely not in your average Program Management position. With an ever curious mind and the spirit of a lifelong learner, I seek deep expertise to deliver inclusive, delightful practices and experiences in talent acquisition and beyond.I work globally with business leaders, technologists, and program leaders across Amazon and its subsidiaries. Within my team, I develop, design and document new strategies, requirements and timelines to drive equitable improvements and impact inclusive processes. As a critical member of cross-functional teams, I am able to also drive process design, testing, implementation, and operations to support new initiatives and services through the lens of diversity and inclusion. I look at end-to-end hiring practices and expand or change them for the assurance of equitable and mindful engagement of underrepresented talent. I examine programs and processes with a global outlook to understand and support the unique and valued perspectives of various cultures and populations.As a board member for the Amazon People with Disabilities (PWD) Affinity Group, and an avid advocate for the power of innovation within PWD and Neurodiverse talent, I am honored to contribute and drive best practices and improvements for internal Amazon PWD communities as well as external entities. At Amazon, every day is Day 1, and I am deeply grateful to be building a diverse and inclusive future for all of our customers!

Every day I enjoy the company of incredibly smart people who are obsessed with the customer experience! I get to have fun while working hard, advocating for divese voices and making history! Amazon prides itself on hiring and developing the best and I get to help find them! For me each interaction is unique and incredibly exciting! I LOVE hearing about what problems folks want to solve.I am inpired daily by brilliant individuals who are eager to learn and be curious; who are seeking ownership, and who long to invent and simplify processes. I am surrounded by AMZN folks with backbone, who think big, and who are right, a lot! Together we are encouraged to have bias for action for innovative ideas. Even when the thought differs, we are a unified team insisting on the highest standards; so we are willing to disagree and commit to deliver results. Daily we explore opportunities to dive deep and take risks. Our approach is thoughtful, frugal and always seeking to earn the trust of others.At Amazon..."It's our job to make bold bets, and we get our energy from inventing on behalf of customers. Success is measured against the possible, not the probable. For today’s pioneers, that’s exactly why there’s no place on Earth they’d rather build than Amazon."^ THIS gets me excited every morning! Come join me :)
