What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and optimize enterprise HCM platforms, integrations, data governance, reporting, and workflow automation while improving operational efficiency and the employee experience.

I've led HRIS administration, system integration, and data governance across enterprise HCM environments including Paycom, Workday, Oracle Cloud HCM, ADP Workforce Now, Namely, and UKG Pro.

At American Geophysical Union, I optimized HRIS strategy and the Paycom roadmap, served as a technical liaison across HR, Payroll, IT, and Finance, and delivered reporting through Power BI and Tableau. I also partnered with vendors on EDI files and API integrations for benefits enrollment.

I've managed multinational US and Canada payroll for Versace, Jimmy Choo, and Michael Kors, and led personnel-data migration from ADP to Namely using Python validation scripts. My work includes system configuration, audit-ready reporting, compensation workflows, and reconciliation.

Across organizations including BDO USA, The Trade Desk, The Hope Program, Fortune Society, and Brooklyn Museum, I've improved HR processes through automation, testing, reporting, user training, and HCM implementation support.
