What I'm looking for

I seek a role managing comprehensive leave and disability programs where I can apply compliance expertise, HRIS case management skills, and collaborative return-to-work coordination in a supportive, process-driven environment.

I am a leave of absence and disability management professional with extensive experience administering complex leave programs across multi-state environments. I manage full lifecycle leave and disability cases including FMLA, ADA/ADAAA accommodations, STD, LTD, Workers’ Compensation, USERRA, personal and educational leaves, and state paid leave programs.

I am skilled in eligibility determinations, HRIS case management, medical documentation review, return-to-work planning, vendor/TPA coordination, and regulatory compliance, and I maintain legally compliant case files while supporting high-volume caseloads with accuracy and empathy.

In previous roles I collaborated with HR business partners, payroll teams, disability claim adjusters, and medical providers to support timely claim adjudication and coordinated disability benefit calculations to ensure accurate benefit payments and leave/disability coordination.
