About

With over 13 years in Human Resources, I’ve gained invaluable insights into leadership, workplace culture, and what truly makes a company thrive—its people. A business is only as strong as its workforce, and I am deeply passionate about creating environments where employees feel valued, engaged, and empowered.

Since September 2022, I have been proud to serve as the Director of Human Resources at Parkview Dental Partners, where I lead culture-driven initiatives that enhance employee experience, drive engagement, and support business growth. As a culture-focused HR professional, I am committed to helping organizations build workplaces that attract, retain, and develop top talent.

Every day, I strive to take companies one step closer to becoming the Employer of Choice in their industry—because when people flourish, businesses succeed.
