What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can improve internal communication workflows, strengthen intranet governance in SharePoint/Microsoft 365, and support People/HR programs with clear documentation and practical operations that teams can execute.

I’m an internal communications and people operations professional focused on clarity, structure, and practical workflows that help teams work smarter. I’ve built and standardized communication processes, strengthened intranet governance, and supported People/HR programs in remote environments.

In my Internal Communications Specialist role at Fusable, I unified internal communications workflow and improved cross-team visibility. I managed the performance review cycle to increase on-time completion and strengthen goal-tracking, and I built intranet publishing standards while expanding a SharePoint library by ~20%.

Previously, as a Senior Communications Specialist at Apex Systems, I led reputation initiatives across 70+ offices and helped increase Google ratings by 14%. I created review request templates, standardized executive reporting, reorganized SharePoint structure, and ran internal campaigns tied to business priorities with strong engagement.

Now, as an Employee Relations Specialist/People Operations professional at BeMobile INC, I manage employee relations cases and documentation, investigate workplace issues and policy concerns, and oversee UI claims and hearing responses. I also process separations and final paperwork and administer disciplinary actions with manager guidance—bringing the same operational rigor and documentation strength to People operations.
