Working in close collaboration with the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) of Harvard University Health Services (HUHS), I will play a crucial role in shaping and executing strategic Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (EDIB) initiatives identified by the Chief Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging Officer. I will provide structure and support for the development and implementation of strategic EDIB initiatives, as well as the measurement and tracking of their success. I will provide organizational support, leadership, and coordination to the project team and be responsible for managing a diverse portfolio of complex projects aimed at advancing Harvard University Health Services’ EDIB priorities. I will assist with change management, and facilitate decision-making with key stakeholders. My role will be instrumental in fostering an inclusive culture, driving equitable practices, and promoting EDIB at all levels of HUHS.

Some of my many priorities in my role as People Partner (HRBP) is supporting my clients as they navigate through change. Much of this work is through workforce management, diagnosing and mitigating hurdles to collaboration through high-performing team workshops, and constructing processes and policies tailored to their needs.

The Employee Experience team at Sonos is the first point of contact for employee needs. In my role, I helped new hires get the best out of their first weeks at Sonos by facilitating learning through our vigorous onboarding plan. Throughout the life-cycle of their employment, I spent time identifying fragile parts of our processes that impeded on their ability the get the information that they needed to navigate our policies and systems on their own, and worked cross-functionally within the team and with partner teams to improve them. In my free time, it was important to me engage with employees on a personal level which inspired my co-founding of one our first ever employee resource groups. This gave me a much deeper insight into the cultural needs and desires at Sonos, and further inspired my interest in diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

My drive toward a career in Organization Psychology led me to my position at Cayan as an entry-level Human Resources Assistant. In this position, my passion to learn about my field as well as the organization, has enabled me to take on many challenges within and beyond my job description. As I gain more knowledge about the field, I am even more convinced that Organizational Psychology is an area that I would like to grow in.In my time at Cayan, I have undertaken many tasks, which include administering employee benefits, recruiting for numerous positions, promoting the company at various university career fairs, organizing employee engagement events and activities, facilitating the on-boarding of new hires, and most importantly, becoming established as a key point of contact for employee relations. I have also had the privilege to collaborate on a host of projects that have propelled my experience in my short time at Cayan. This includes my contributions toward our company re-branding (Merchant Warehouse into Cayan), researching and creating supplemental benefits, creating individual company activities budgets for our 3 offices, leading the construction of our monthly newsletter, and partnering on high-level HR related initiatives and communications.As I continue my tenure at Cayan, I am looking forward to becoming engaged in new projects that are unfolding both within my department as well as throughout the rest of the company. I am energized by the continued learning experiences offered to me.

While committed to acquiring my undergraduate degree in psychology, I exercised my knowledge in sales and began a business development role at Mercedes-Benz of Boston.
