Renegade HR and People Operations
People Operations
I’m an accomplished HR and OD professional with experience in both HR business-process-outsourced (BPO) solutions and technology, as well as in-house generalist and specialist positions in startups, SMBs, and a large multinational.
Renegade HR
In my last three roles I've reported directly to CXOs — assisting the growth of these organizations and respective functions, while expanding my scope from what was originally envisioned. I’m cool like that!
“Human resources are like natural resources; they're often buried deep. You have to go looking for them, they're not just lying around on the surface. You have to create the circumstances where they show themselves.”
Sir Ken Robinson
