At Brookdale Senior Living, I oversee HR responsibilities, budgets, accounts payable and receivable, and resident records. I also support resident and family relations and serve as a Business Partner Area Mentor.

As Chairman of the Excellence and Culture Committee, I help plan and lead monthly staff meetings and address employee concerns. I also track training, compliance, CPR, and licenses.

At Parker at River Road, I created and maintained data and reports, including weekly and monthly reporting for the business and DOH. I also coordinated employee and resident health tracking and maintained records in accordance with state guidelines.

Earlier, at EDISON PEDIATRICS, I maintained business records, managed facility scheduling, verified insurance information, and helped with state audits and databases. My credentials include Certified Assisted Living Administrator, Certified Dementia Specialist, and Associate Professional Human Resources.
