What I'm looking for

I seek a people-focused HR role where I can lead talent acquisition, improve onboarding processes, and support a collaborative, efficient workplace.

I am an experienced human resources and recruiting professional with a strong background in full-cycle recruitment, onboarding, and administrative support. I have managed hiring processes from initial phone screens to offer acceptance, supported clinical and non-clinical staffing, and handled background checks and new-hire documentation.

Across roles at CHI St. Vincent and related employers, I developed recruiting strategies, maintained employee files, prepared reports for leadership, and coordinated executive schedules and events. I was a top-ranked hiring recruiter (FY2020) with 700+ hires and recognized for fast time-to-fill metrics.

I bring deep operational knowledge of HR policies and systems, strong administrative and calendar-management skills, and a customer-focused, collaborative approach. I seek to apply these strengths to help a team hire effectively and maintain accurate, compliant HR operations.
