What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values employee engagement and offers opportunities for strategic HR leadership.

I am an energetic and ambitious HR professional with over 22 years of experience in Global Immigration and Mobility, HR Business Partnership, and Organizational Development. My journey has been marked by a commitment to enhancing organizational efficiencies and employee engagement, which I believe are crucial for any company's success. I have successfully led initiatives that not only improve workplace culture but also contribute to the overall profitability and reputation of the organizations I've worked with.

Throughout my career, I have held various leadership roles, including Chief People Officer and Senior Manager of HR, where I have driven significant improvements in talent acquisition, employee engagement, and performance management. My strategic approach to HR has been recognized with multiple awards, including 'Best Delivery Team of 2010' at IBM and 'The Most Talented Manager of HSBC'. I am passionate about fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace and have implemented various programs to promote equity and inclusion across all levels of the organization.
