Message

At American Bath Group, I lead HR service delivery and employee relations across a 5,000+ employee, multi-site organization. I’m directing a shift from paper-based processes to a digital HR experience, including case management and expanded HRIS use.

At Pioneer Natural Resources, I provided executive oversight for HR across corporate and field locations and contributed to HR and communications work on acquisitions, divestitures, and the ExxonMobil merger. Earlier at American Airlines, I led HR service delivery for a 120,000-employee population and served on the team migrating HR systems from on-premises SAP to SuccessFactors.
