I have worked in the Human Resources field for about 10 years in various HR functional areas. I have gained valuable experience in full cycle recruitment, HR administration, Payroll & Benefits administration and management, wellness programs, employee relations, training/development, succession planning, HR compliance, change management, HR technology, and continuous improvement.

My previous experience includes regional responsibility as a HR Generalist with Price Rite Supermarkets, where I was responsible for 8 stores with more than 1,000 employees across three states. My role with Price Rite provided me the opportunity to work across functional units such as Loss Prevention/Risk Management. Most of my work was involved in employee engagement, safety, loss mitigation, customer service training, and management coaching.
