In my current role as the Human Resource Specialist for Mashpee Public Schools, I am a department of one facilitating the HR needs of our school district. In conjunction with administration, I am reimagining the role of HR by bringing us up to date with new procedures and technologies. I am taking the opportunity to build new bridges between the HR office and the district staff by striving for transparency and equity. COVID facilitated a mid-life career change for me and I have found ways to integrate skills from my prior career as a leader and department manager into this new role. I am creative, a quick student, adaptable, flexible, easy to get along with, a very hard worker, a problem solver, a community builder, and a facilitator.
