I'm looking to continue aligning people strategy with business goals while building inclusive, empowered workplaces through employee engagement, talent development, workforce planning, and collaborative leadership.
```

## About

```text
At Advanced Services Inc./GE Appliances, I partner with leaders on employee relations, workforce planning, succession, merit reviews, engagement, incentive plans, and performance KPIs. I also lead investigations, coach a Senior HR Representative, and identify automation and AI opportunities in core HR processes.

Previously at Amazon, I supported associates and people leaders with employee lifecycle guidance, workforce optimization, onboarding, investigations, and engagement insights designed to improve morale and reduce attrition.

My recruitment background spans Tenet Healthcare, TruGreen, Vaco, Vanderbilt University, and Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where I managed full-cycle hiring, sourcing, candidate selection, offers, onboarding, and hiring-manager partnerships. I'm motivated by creating empowered, thriving workplaces built on inclusion, innovation, collaboration, and action.
