What I'm looking for

I seek senior HR roles focused on employee/industrial relations, organizational development, and inclusive culture-building with impact and growth.

I am a strategic, results-oriented Human Resource professional with over 10 years' experience in employee and industrial relations, organizational development, HR operations, and compliance across unionized and corporate environments.

I have led HR operations and employee services for large workforces, managed complex collective bargaining and grievance resolution, and collaborated with executive leadership to strengthen workplace culture and staff well-being.

My track record includes high Industrial Court success rates, significant negotiated wage increases, and launching employee-centric programs such as an on-site daycare to improve work–life balance.

I am passionate about cultivating inclusive workplaces, mentoring HR professionals and students, and applying evidence-based HR policy and stakeholder engagement to drive organizational performance.
