What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead or strengthen total rewards and compensation programs where I can apply analytics, financial modeling, governance, automation, and cross-functional partnership to improve pay decisions, program effectiveness, and employee experience.

I've led compensation operations at eHealth Insurance for 2,200+ employees across six business divisions, directing multi-million-dollar compensation cycles with 99%+ accuracy and 100% on-time delivery. I build models for OTE, quotas, accelerators, bonuses, SPIFFs, forecasts, and alternative payout scenarios to guide cost, affordability, and program decisions.

Across eHealth Insurance, Atlas Roofing, Asia Pulp & Paper, and American Honda Motor Co., I've improved incentive effectiveness, reporting accuracy, controls, and data quality through Excel, SQL, Power BI, automation, and cross-functional partnership. I bring an MBA in Human Resources Management and hands-on experience connecting HR, Finance, Payroll, Sales Operations, and business leaders around clear, well-governed total rewards programs.
