In today’s rapidly changing work environment, the HR function can no longer simply focus on policy, payroll, and paperwork. I believe that HR professionals must be collaborative, supportive, and “customer” focused partners who are able to build strong relationships with all levels of employees.With over 20 years of proven and progressive experience, I am able to expertly balance an organization’s people needs with its business objectives. My diverse industry experience, ability to lead high-performing teams, and commitment to continuous improvement offers a unique value to any company.I have proven success in planning, directing, and executing HR strategy for organizationsranging in size from small businesses (5 employees) to a Fortune 500 company (1,500+ employees and $10 billion in local revenue).I've been fortunate to have loved what I do for nearly 20 years, and during that time, I've worked in both the public and private sectors including Healthcare, Education, Banking, Manufacturing, Hospitality, Construction, and Local Government.
