Human Resources Coaches, Events, and Resources

I love this function and believe I am doing what I am meant to do. I would be happy to share interview tips, discuss my experience, and empower you on your journey into becoming a People person!

After graduation, I did a rotational role at PayPal across learning and development, talent assessment, and performance reviews. I am now a People Partner reporting directly to the Head of People at Verkada. I operate as the Head of HR for the business units I support. I do "everything" including employee coaching, career laddering, performance reviews, employee relations, compensation, performance management - to name a few areas! I was also featured in LinkedIn's 2023 Workplace Learning Report video (1 of 5 global HR professionals).
