United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a strategic workforce management consultant with over 7 years of experience in end-to-end UKG implementations, specializing in Time & Attendance, Scheduling, and Forecasting. My expertise lies in labor cost optimization and leading large-scale workforce transformations in complex, regulated environments. I have a proven track record of reducing labor costs by 15–20% through data-driven optimization and redesigning WFM processes.
In my current role as a Sr. Financial and Operations Analyst at Full House Resorts, I built an automated Approaching Overtime report that improved compliance and reduced unnecessary labor expenses. I have partnered with senior leadership to develop EBITDA projections for new casino ventures and conducted in-depth competitor research to influence strategic decisions. My ability to translate technical solutions into measurable business impact has been instrumental in driving cost-saving initiatives through strategic labor planning.
Throughout my career, I have led enterprise-wide UKG labor analytics initiatives and collaborated with IT to build data warehouses for real-time labor cost tracking. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my achievements, including saving over $200K annually through UKG scheduling optimizations and receiving recognition as Team Member of the Month for Innovation.
