## About

```text
At Amazon, I advise Senior Directors on people strategy for 500+ employees across 13 European countries. I use HR analytics in Monthly Business Reviews to inform organizational design and headcount planning.

I led the HR integration of T3 supervisory staff into an existing operational structure across Italy, Spain, France, and Germany. I coached Senior Country Directors on change communication and managed consultations with local works councils.

I designed and deployed a promotion framework for L5 to L7 employees, with objective criteria and a Senior Leadership Panel review process. I also structured change management strategies for reorganizations and process rollouts, equipping managers with playbooks, FAQs, and talking points.

Earlier at Amazon, I supported the employee lifecycle across remote and field teams, and provided HR operations support across French sites. At Symrise AG, I managed day-to-day HR administration, employment contracts, and payroll data transmission.
