I began my career in Human Resources/Learning and Development many years ago after graduating from Purdue University's rigorous Master of Science in Human Resource Management (M.S.H.R.M) program.
Roles held include:
HR Generalist/Business Partner – spent approximately 20%-30% of time on designing and delivering training, including leadership development.
Talent Acquisition / Recruiting – many IT positions including senior developers, entry-senior level managers, project managers, customer service, and more.
HR Consultant – process flows, performance management, implementations of HR software, etc.
More recently, my own thirst for knowledge and love of helping others learn led me to complete a certificate program in eLearning and Instructional Design.
My true calling!!

Just as I strived to balance the needs of companies, managers, and employees in past HR roles, I will balance the needs of *your* company with that of your learners.
