Human Resources Manager at Rainbow, Inc
July 2006 - July 2008 (2 years 1 month)
All HR and related tasks in a manufacturing facility of 60 employees. As this was a relatively new,

American Red Cross services within my chapter's jurisdiction. This required setting a vision for the chapter's
direction based on local community, customer and donor needs; and to plan for, procure, develop, and sustain
the financial, human / volunteer, and physical resources required to realize that vision. Critical to this role
was influencing and developing collaborative relationships with external audiences, including government,
business, other charitable and social service agencies, and the media. Specifically, I was responsible for
day-to- day management of the business operations and systems essential to a service delivery unit of the
nation's leading charitable humanitarian service organization. These included strategic planning, customer /
donor relations, financial and human resource management, information systems, organizational
accountability (national, regional, state), fiduciary and legal compliance.
