What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values employee well-being and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an experienced Senior HR Specialist currently working with Sodexo, where I manage various leave processes including FMLA, personal, bonding, and military leaves. My role involves providing timely support to employees and managers, ensuring compliance with regulations, and consulting with medical professionals for documentation. My commitment to excellence has allowed me to effectively guide managers through complex leave situations and terminations, enhancing the overall employee experience.

Prior to my current position, I served as a Disability Representative at Sedgwick, where I processed FMLA and STD claims for Kohls’ associates. My experience spans multiple roles within the leave of absence domain, where I honed my skills in complex claim processing and customer service. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively and build strong relationships with clients and colleagues alike.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong work ethic and a passion for helping others. I am eager to continue growing in the HR field, contributing to a positive workplace culture, and supporting employees in their time of need.
