What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an HR Data Processing Technician at Western Washington University, where I specialize in processing personnel action forms and ensuring accurate payroll management. My role involves utilizing various software tools, including Banner and PageUp, to assist the HR department in maintaining organized records and facilitating smooth payroll operations.

With a Bachelor of Arts in Communications, I have honed my interpersonal and leadership skills, which I apply daily in training and managing student workers. My experience in office administration has equipped me with the ability to handle multiple tasks efficiently, from client interactions to data entry and report generation.

In addition to my technical skills, I have a passion for community engagement, demonstrated through my role in public relations for the WWU dance club, where I led classes and managed social media. I am committed to fostering a collaborative work environment and helping others succeed.
