What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters employee engagement and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a highly organized and flexible Sr. Compensation and Benefits Specialist with a passion for maximizing productivity within organizations. My journey in human resources has equipped me with a robust skill set, including payroll processing, benefits administration, and compliance management. I thrive in collaborative environments and am dedicated to driving employee success through effective communication and interpersonal skills.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed payroll for over 350 employees, ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations while maintaining accurate records. My role at CentralReach LLC has allowed me to lead initiatives such as the implementation of E-Verify and the administration of workers' compensation policies. I take pride in my ability to build custom reports in HRIS and provide valuable insights to finance and legal teams, enhancing overall organizational efficiency.

With a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations and an aPHR certification, I am committed to continuous learning and professional development. I am eager to contribute my expertise in compensation and benefits to a forward-thinking organization that values employee engagement and success.
