HR Professional, CPHR
I am a dynamic HR professional with strong project management skills and a proven track record of implementing global HR initiatives. My career began as an HR Assistant with the City of Burnaby, where I honed my skills in recruitment before transitioning to roles at Sophos, where I’ve grown from Talent Acquisition Operations Coordinator to HR Generalist for the Americas.
I thrive in managing complex projects from vision to execution, with a unique ability to balance strategic, big-picture problem-solving with hands-on implementation. Leading initiatives like the global Long Service Program and Global Mentorship Program, I ensure that high-level goals are translated into actionable plans, while also overseeing the details to ensure successful outcomes. My versatility shines through my experience across HR Centers of Excellence, Learning & Development, Talent Acquisition, HR Operations, and People Programs—allowing me to seamlessly adapt to new challenges and contribute to diverse aspects of HR strategy.
Collaboration is at the heart of my work. I’ve partnered with cross-functional teams in Legal, HRIS, Finance, and Marketing to deliver integrated solutions, while my hands-on execution ensures every detail is accounted for. Whether forecasting program impacts, analyzing employee feedback, or building tools to empower teams, I approach HR with a holistic mindset—solving complex challenges with precision and care.
