I am an open and candid professional that loves to collaborate with a team to find solutions. I thrive in an honest and accessible environment and bring quantifiable resolutions to the table, often with out-of-the-box ideas to incorporate into troubleshooting, brainstorming or tackling current operations management challenges. While having a good sense of humor about myself and life, I am also able to roll up my sleeves to handle the more difficult aspects of Operations and Human Capital Management. Flexible and creative, I like to breathe new life into my roles and become an organization's positive resource rather than the ‘Angel of Death' that employees avoid or worse, are afraid to talk to about job satisfaction or other company liabilities. Happy, heard and productive employees definitely make a happy and productive company!
