Chief of Staff and operations leader delivering safety, HR, and executive execution.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Chief of Staff and operations professional who acts as a strategic partner to leadership, aligning executive priorities with company goals to ensure results on schedule and within budget. I bring a strong OSHA/Cal-OSHA safety and compliance foundation, plus hands-on experience coordinating HR, safety, compliance, and project management teams to keep work moving across active job sites and day-to-day operations.
Previously, I led full-cycle HR functions—recruitment, onboarding, employee relations, performance reviews, and benefits administration—while building reliable documentation systems like an LMS training tracker to support accuracy for audits and utility partner requirements. I’ve also managed high-stakes operations as an Executive Assistant to the CEO, and led conferences for 1,500–3,500 attendees, strengthening vendor management, budgeting, event-day logistics, and cross-functional communication.
