What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a senior leadership role at the intersection of operations, talent strategy, and organizational effectiveness, ideally within a mission-driven organization while completing graduate studies in public administration.

At Triad Health Project, I influenced agency-wide strategy as a Leadership Team member and kept executive priorities moving by coordinating CEO and COO scheduling, materials, and organizational initiatives. I also directed food pantry operations, securing donations to sustain distribution of 450+ food bags monthly.

At Applied Systems, I owned full-cycle talent acquisition and led a team of five Talent Acquisition Partners, filling 400+ requisitions annually through iCIMS. Using recruiter performance metrics, I helped achieve a 65% reduction in time-to-fill and advanced diversity and representation as recruiting priorities.

At Monarch, I directed recruitment for more than 100 locations statewide and expanded the Talent Acquisition team from one to seven. Social media outreach and innovative job boards helped reduce time-to-fill by 40%.

Earlier, at Kodiak Community Health Center, I built the HR function from the ground up, including policies, an employee handbook, and a compensation structure. I also designed a gender-pay-equity framework with transparent salary bands and hired 12 employees. I'm completing a Master of Public Administration focused on Nonprofit Management at UNC Chapel Hill.
