Driven by a long-term fascination with I/O psychology, I have had my hand in nearly all aspects of the employee lifecycle from implementing high-volume candidate assessments through formalizing the collection and analysis of exit interview data. Between those bookends there has been a wealth of opportunity to improve people processes. A short list of initiatives I’ve been fortunate enough to have had ownership over includes assessment center development, succession management, leadership development, career pathing, training, competency modeling, and certifications. Along the way, I've honed my vendor management and cross-functional collaboration skills with the understanding that creating effective people programs and initiatives isn’t just about doing these things but doing them well and with the right people involved. Everything I do relies on practical research-based, data-driven practices. I have a true love for all things analytics. The only thing I may enjoy more than using data is creating it, be it designing skills assessments or conducting organizational research and survey studies. Though I am by no means a programmer, I am highly proficient in VBA, have developed multiple automation tools, and have learned other scripting languages for various purposes. My interest is in identifying, learning, and using whatever tools I need for the job. Learning the next thing, whatever it may be, is how I keep moving forward. Standing still is not for me.
