🧭 Purpose + Leadership

I bring the precision of analytics to the art of people strategy.

With a foundation in psychology and over a decade leading global HR transformation, I specialize in using data to decode workforce behavior, predict outcomes, and design scalable systems that improve performance and engagement.

From implementing HRIS and analytics dashboards to building frameworks for succession, compensation, and workforce planning - I’ve helped organizations translate people insights into business intelligence.

I believe leadership is about precision with empathy - making data-informed decisions without losing sight of people.
