What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values employee engagement, and embraces digital transformation in HR.

I am a strategic and result-oriented HR Operations & Shared Services Leader with over 18 years of experience in optimizing HR functions and driving digital transformation initiatives. My expertise lies in end-to-end HR lifecycle management, payroll processing, and HR analytics, which I leverage to enhance employee experience and ensure statutory compliance.

Throughout my career, I have successfully standardized HR processes, implemented automated systems, and developed dynamic HR dashboards that support management reporting. My role as Senior Manager at Goodrich Logistics involved enhancing operational efficiency and achieving 100% payroll accuracy through rigorous audits. I have consistently demonstrated my ability to lead HR shared services for large employee bases, ensuring compliance and effective vendor management.

My educational background includes an MBA in HR Development & Management, and I have been recognized for my leadership growth, having been promoted five times in 13 years. I am passionate about using data-driven insights to improve workforce planning and organizational efficiency.
