What I'm looking for

I am looking for an operations or onboarding role where I can improve processes, manage logistics, train teams, and support leaders in a collaborative corporate environment.

I am an onboarding and administrative specialist with over 20 years supporting Mobility Retail Sales and corporate operations at AT&T, focused on streamlining processes and delivering high-touch support to leadership. I led onboarding for 500+ new hires annually, improved time-to-productivity by 15%, and maintained 100% compliance with security protocols.

My strengths include project coordination, expense management, training development and delivery, and detailed data analysis for anomaly detection and reporting. I have advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and practical experience with multiple retail channel systems and corporate platforms.

I bring a hands-on, adaptable approach to dynamic corporate environments, consistently achieving high trainee satisfaction rates and managing complex logistics such as travel, office relocations, and IT provisioning while supporting cross-functional stakeholders.
