About

I'm a Senior HR Business Partner who built my career at the National Institutes of Health doing the kind of work that high-growth organizations in the private sector need right now. Hiring at scale. Building HR infrastructure from scratch. Aligning talent strategy with organizational goals when the stakes are high and the timeline is short.

Throughout my career, I've served as a trusted advisor to executives, leading initiatives that delivered real results:

  • Increased recruitment efficiency by modernizing hiring strategy and processes, including leading a 100+ employee hiring push at NIA while simultaneously building new HR systems and infrastructure

  • Boosted engagement and retention through recognition programs and targeted employee development

  • Streamlined workforce planning by connecting talent strategy directly to organizational goals in complex, heavily regulated environments

My leadership style blends collaboration, innovation, and hands-on problem-solving. I thrive in mission-driven organizations where investing in people leads to lasting impact and I bring that same orientation to the private sector, consulting, and contracting environments where HR has to be a driver of growth, not just a support function.

I'm looking for an opportunity where I can have measurable impact in workforce strategy, employee experience, and organizational effectiveness. If your organization is ready to build something, I'd love to connect.
