What I'm looking for

I am a strategic HR and talent operations professional with experience designing and executing HR programs across startups and global organizations. I have led performance evaluation cycles, organizational planning, values refreshes, and engagement initiatives that improved communication, alignment, and remote team cohesion.

My background includes full-cycle recruiting for Engineering, Operations, and Executive roles, high-volume pipeline management in Greenhouse, and cross-functional stakeholder collaboration across time zones. I bring process improvement skills (Lean Six Sigma Green Belt), proficiency with HR and productivity systems, and a consistent record of building scalable people processes and training programs.
