What I'm looking for

I’m looking to partner with leadership to build high-performing HR functions—using HR analytics, performance frameworks, and compliant policy—to drive culture, talent growth, and operational transformation in a people-first, data-led environment.

I’m a strategic HR leader with over 9 years of experience driving HR transformation across SBUs and startups. I build HR departments from scratch, restructure operations for efficiency, and elevate performance and culture through practical, measurable frameworks.

I translate workforce capability into growth using data and analytics, including predictive models and HR effectiveness metrics. I’ve reduced costs by 35%, improved industrial harmony, and embedded diversity and inclusion through systems that leaders and teams can actually use.

At Steel Partner Group, I led the setup of a full-scale HR department from scratch—partnering with leadership to define and implement HR strategies aligned to the business vision. I’ve delivered organizational development and culture transformation, developed staffing standards/SOPs, managed disciplinary processes, overseen payroll and statutory returns, and reduced leave liability by 75%.

I’m especially energized by work that blends strong governance with people outcomes: policy development and compliance, performance management linked to strategic outcomes, and talent development with succession planning. I want to keep bringing “balanced” HR—ethical, data-informed, and execution-focused—to organizations ready to change and grow.
