What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an HR role focused on recruitment and HR operations where I can apply PeopleFirst, SharePoint, and Excel skills, improve processes, and contribute in a collaborative, organized team environment.

I am a Human Resources Specialist with hands-on experience in recruitment, HR operations, and personnel action processing within the Florida Department of Corrections.

I manage end-to-end recruitment tasks — processing personnel action requests and pay changes, calculating pay exceptions, running background checks, and posting central office advertisements. I regularly use PeopleFirst, SharePoint, Axiom Pro and Excel to log data, run reports, and maintain accurate applicant records.

I bring strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a customer-service mindset, able to work independently or collaborate with colleagues. I enjoy applying logical problem-solving to improve HR processes and support effective staffing outcomes.
