At Aston Carter, supporting Amazon, I managed employee leave and benefits cases, including FMLA, workers’ compensation, and open enrollment guidance. I achieved a 90% case resolution rate and a 91% employee satisfaction score while maintaining HRIS documentation and supporting compliance.

At Chronic Care Staffing, I collaborated on a centralized HR database hub and led full-cycle recruitment, onboarding, and offboarding. The work increased onboarding efficiency by 30%, recruiter efficiency by 15%, and employee retention by 20%. I currently contribute to program strategy and progression development as a Physical Education Teacher & Athletics Coach at Houston ISD.
