What I'm looking for

I seek roles leading workplace investigations or employment relations teams where I can mentor staff, improve processes, ensure compliance, and deliver fair outcomes.

I am a senior employment and labor relations consultant with extensive experience conducting high-stakes, sensitive investigations into discrimination, harassment, retaliation, fraud, and workplace safety matters.

I have led and built investigation teams across large organizations, mentored investigators, and driven process improvements that increased efficiency and ensured consistent, fair outcomes.

My background includes acting as primary investigator for major employers, preparing detailed investigative reports, consulting with HR, Legal, and Operations, and advising leadership on risk mitigation and policy compliance.

I hold certifications in EEO investigation and licensed investigative credentials in Texas, and I am committed to promoting fair, lawful, and respectful workplaces while developing teams and delivering actionable recommendations.
