What I'm looking for

I seek a compliance or operations leadership role where I can implement scalable systems, improve risk controls, and lead cross-functional teams toward measurable operational improvements.

I am an Operations and Compliance professional with extensive experience managing audits, operational compliance, and cross-functional training across remote and national teams. I have a proven record of building scalable systems and improving operational integrity while reducing exposure to non-compliance.

I led compliance audits for 87 plant locations across three time zones, implemented systems (Coupa, Kronos Dimensions, Kronos Workforce), and created SharePoint resources and Power BI dashboards to streamline compliance tracking. I founded an internal leadership training course, managed day to day operational compliance risks, and directed payroll continuity solutions during a major platform disruption affecting 1.3K+ employees.

I focus on practical process improvement—designing audit programs, improving reporting accuracy, and fostering accessibility, accountability, and continuous improvement to deliver measurable results.
