Seasoned HRIS Professional

Jade K. Willard

Seasoned HRIS Professional seeking fully remote position or hybrid arrangement, ideally with the ability to (eventually) work remotely up to three months per year. Currently residing in central Connecticut but spending weeks at a time in southwest Florida and southeast Maine.

I am passionate about process optimization, data accuracy and integrity, and direct system support.
