I am a promoter of putting people first because people create culture. People crave authenticity; treat them well, invest in their careers, and get to know their families. Train and support your most valuable asset and empower them to make the best decisions. I thrive on helping businesses succeed through human resources best practices and increased employee engagement.ExperienceFounder | Koun Khmer Foundation May 2024 – PresentKoun Khmer Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization I founded after a transformative family trip to Cambodia.
