I help US-based businesses build compliant, high-performing HR systems — from scratch or optimized for scale. With 5+ years spanning Talent Acquisition, Organizational Development, Performance Management, and HR Compliance, I've partnered with teams across hospitality, export, and corporate sectors to reduce time-to-hire, improve retention, and build people-first cultures that actually stick. Here's what I bring to your organization: • Full-cycle recruitment & ATS management — from job posting to offer letter • HR policy development & Employee Handbook creation (FMLA, FLSA, ADA, I-9 compliant) • Performance management frameworks — KPIs, SMART goals, appraisal systems • HRIS implementation & payroll optimization (BambooHR, ADP, Workday) • Employee engagement, retention strategies & onboarding programs • Organizational Development — learning frameworks, succession planning & change management • G Suite (Google Docs, Google Excel, Google Forms, Google Calendar, Google Slide, Google Hangouts, Google Meet, Gmail) • Employer branding — LinkedIn strategy, job descriptions & talent pipeline building In my current role as HR Manager, I've logged 1,800+ hours managing end-to-end HR operations for a US-based client — supporting recruitment cycles, policy compliance, performance reviews, and day-to-day people operations. Previously, as People & Culture Business Partner and Assistant Manager HR & OD, I led cross-functional teams, built training programs from the ground up, and implemented structured appraisal systems that improved manager accountability and employee satisfaction scores. Whether you're a US startup building HR infrastructure from day one, a growing SMB looking to formalize your people processes, or an established business needing ongoing HR support — I can step in as your dedicated People & Culture partner. Let's build a workplace that's not just compliant — but one your team actually loves showing up to. Book a consultation or send me a message. I respond within 4 hours.
