## About

```text
At Equinix, I co-led the people workstreams for a $140M+ cost-optimization program, shaping its workforce strategy and roadmap. I also developed governed AI workflows that save about 20 hours a week.

In Equinix’s Community & Belonging strategy and analytics work, I uncovered potential adverse impact in the global performance-management system and built the business case that led to removing the biased metric. I owned a three-year talent diagnostic across 10,000+ employees and presented its findings to executives; the subsequent redesign produced a statistically significant, moderate year-over-year drop in detected bias.

My research background includes building a predictive retention model for a $5M NSF program and conducting I/O psychology research at Saint Cloud State University. I’m a Prosci Certified Change Practitioner, hold an M.S. in I/O Psychology, and bring research methods and executive storytelling to people and organizational decisions.
