What I'm looking for

I'm looking to partner with executives through growth and transformation, modernizing people operations, strengthening leadership capability, and building practical HR systems that keep organizations compliant, agile, and focused on business outcomes.

I'm leading global people operations at Zywave, modernizing support for approximately 1,000 employees through shared services, AI-supported delivery, compensation automation, and cross-border operational alignment.

I've built HR governance, performance management, compensation architecture, succession planning, and change strategies at Novus Home Mortgage, 3Cloud, Concurrency, and Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants. I partner directly with executives and counsel on workforce reductions, employee relations, risk mitigation, and organizational change while preserving employee dignity.
