What I'm looking for

I seek a senior HR/talent acquisition role leading end-to-end recruitment for multicultural teams, improving hiring processes with ATS and analytics, and mentoring teams in a collaborative, growth-focused company.

I am a bilingual psychologist and human resources professional with 15 years' experience leading end-to-end HR and talent acquisition across the U.S., Mexico, Guatemala and Brazil.

I have led full-cycle recruitment for technical, operational and high-volume roles at organizations including PayPal, partnering with hiring managers and using ATS platforms such as LinkedIn Recruiter, Eightfold and Workday to fill classes of 15–30 agents and maintain time-to-fill averages of 60–90 days.

I design standardized onboarding and documentation processes, deliver competency-based interviews and psychometric assessments, and manage payroll, IGSS/IRTRA compliance and employee relations—consistently improving time-to-interview, candidate quality and new-hire readiness.
