What I'm looking for
I am a Senior People Operations leader with 7+ years of experience owning the operational backbone of distributed, growth-stage organizations. I specialize in HRIS ownership, multi-state compliance, payroll audits, leave administration, policy development, and people analytics.
At Tagboard, I served as HRIS owner (Rippling), led multi-state compliance, audited payroll, and managed leave administration while producing workforce reporting that informed executive decision-making. I partnered closely with Finance, Legal, and IT to design audit-ready, automated People Operations and scalable processes.
