About

As an HR Business Partner, I have developed and implemented HR programs, processes, and initiatives that align with the business objectives and enhance the employee experience. I hold a Senior Professional in Human Resources® (SPHR®) certification and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration: Human Resource Management from San Jose State University. My core competencies include communication, compensation, performance management, career development, team and manager effectiveness, and leadership coaching. In my most recent role at Mandiant (now part of Google Cloud), I partnered with the business units to co-lead initiatives to increase employee engagement, resolve employee relations issues, and hire and retain talented employees. I also administered and supported various compensation programs, policies, and built/ maintained reports, dashboards, and analytics. I am passionate about creating a healthy and productive work environment where employees can thrive and grow.
