HR and operations leader driving efficiency, retention, and scalable remote workflows.
What I'm looking for
I am an HR and operations professional with extensive experience building remote-first systems, stabilizing cross-border field operations, and managing full P&L responsibilities. I have led automation initiatives, policy frameworks, and disaster recovery planning to ensure continuity and compliance.
I have delivered measurable results: a 40% compression in financial cycle times through QuickBooks integrations, a 22% reduction in turnover via transparent compensation and digital onboarding, and a 30% improvement in project delivery timelines by implementing lean SOPs. I design executive dashboards and operational KPIs to give C-suite visibility and improve forecasting accuracy.
I thrive on optimizing workflows, mentoring teams, and coordinating multi-city programs and large budgets. I seek roles where I can scale operational excellence, improve client experience, and lead cross-functional teams to measurable productivity and retention gains.
