Austin, Texas, United States
I’m a dedicated HR Generalist with experience supporting fast-growing teams and creating efficient HR processes that improve the employee experience. At TruPlay Games, I was part of a small but mighty HR and Operations team, collaborating to manage the full employee lifecycle for a multi-state workforce. Together with my team, I supported onboarding and offboarding, payroll and benefits administration, employee relations, and HR compliance in a dynamic, mission-driven environment. One of my proudest accomplishments was being part of the lead HR team during a company-wide layoff, helping offboard 35+ employees with empathy and ensuring the process was handled smoothly and respectfully. I also worked with my team to save over $20,000 by resolving a backlog of state tax delinquencies and supported the implementation of a new HCM and payroll system, making HR processes more efficient and scalable. What drives me is building trust and structure within organizations—helping employees feel heard, supported, and empowered from day one. I have hands-on experience with employee feedback initiatives, benefits audits, vendor coordination, and HRIS systems, and I thrive in collaborative environments where I can partner with leadership to create a better employee experience. I’m currently seeking HR Generalist or People Operations opportunities with teams that value collaboration, continuous improvement, and employee well-being—whether remote, hybrid, or Austin-based.
