I have more than 10 years of experience in managing leave of absence and disability cases, complying with federal and state laws, and providing guidance and support to HR partners, leaders, and new hires.I am passionate about creating a culture of inclusion and diversity, where every employee can thrive and contribute to the organization's mission and vision. I have been instrumental in creating and implementing processes and training programs that enhance ADA compliance and awareness, reduce risks and costs, and improve employee satisfaction and retention. I also have skills in process improvement, which I acquired from my previous role as an ADA Specialist at Matrix Absence Management, where I handled complex and high-volume ADA cases for clients in various industries.Certified ADA Coordinator, Mental Health First Aider
