What I'm looking for

I seek an HR role where I can lead end-to-end people processes, improve retention, implement HRIS-driven efficiencies, and support a collaborative, growth-focused company culture.

I am a dynamic, detail-oriented HR Generalist with over three years of progressive experience across architecture, public sector, water engineering, and food manufacturing industries. I manage end-to-end HR functions including recruitment, onboarding, payroll, employee relations, and policy development.

At AAJ Express Logistics I led full-cycle hiring and benefits administration for 100+ staff, reducing time-to-hire by 25% and improving retention through competitive compensation and safety-focused training. At AlignArchitects I implemented HR policies, digital filing, and engagement programs that improved satisfaction and cut turnover.

My background includes hands-on payroll work for 200+ personnel at the Public Complaints Commission during NYSC, remote executive support that improved CEO efficiency and project delivery, and HR internship experience supporting large-scale HRIS recordkeeping and recruitment at UAC Foods.

I am pursuing CIPM affiliation and a master's to deepen HR expertise, and I leverage HRIS, Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and remote collaboration tools to drive compliance, efficiency, and inclusive workplace initiatives.
