About

HR Business Partner with 10+ years of experience supporting full-cycle HR operations across remote and multi-state teams, including high-risk states like California. I work closely with leaders on employee relations, performance, and organizational change. I help them navigate challenges and make confident people decisions. Known for my empathetic, people-first approach, friendly communication style, and strong technical aptitude. I’ve led payroll and HRIS audits, improved policy compliance, and optimized systems to support accurate, scalable operations. I provide leadership guidance that is clear, compassionate, and rooted in accountability. I hold a SHRM Workplace Investigations Specialty Credential and graduated cum laude with a degree in Organizational Leadership. I also mentor through Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Texas. Always open to connecting with other HR professionals, business leaders, and mentors.
