Skills
& Expertise
People Experience professional with 10 years in People/HR roles and 5 years operating at the Director level within a fully remote, global tech company. I build the systems, processes, and cultural infrastructure that make work clearer, smoother, and more human.
My strengths sit in People Ops, culture, communication, onboarding, engagement, and designing workflows that remove friction for employees and managers. I’m fully capable of ER, policies and compensation design and execution, but my core value is creating modern, scalable people systems - not traditional HR gatekeeping.
I bring a tech-forward, AI-enabled approach to People Ops, using modern tools to enhance clarity, documentation, and operational efficiency. I thrive in remote-first tech companies where autonomy, async communication, and strong culture matter.
