Recognized Remote Workforce Management Leaders 2025

I believe that remote work is table stakes. A great remote culture and the recruitment marketing chops to tell about it will be the key differentiator for employer brands in the talent market going forward. I love to make hiring a delightful experience for everyone involved. Measuring what matters rather than what drives that recruiterish behavior that no one likes. I'm a partner to the business, hiring managers, candidates, and my team. Building lasting partnerships with brilliant brands has been the highlight of my work. I'm currently leading the global talent acquisition program at XWP, growing the team from 40 people in 2021 to 120+ today. I'm highly interested in connecting with leaders in the remote tech and talent space and all members of cross-functional software development teams, so feel free to reach out! My family, my faith, and my values are an integral part of how I approach my work. Leading with care, kindness, and character. And of course, we're hiring.

I'm an innovative, curious, and passionate People Ops leader trying to connect employers and their people. Super powers include focused, engaging and effective communications, grace under pressure, and maintaining attention to detail while scoping big picture results. I focus on clarity, inclusion, accountability, respect, and trust - which means I operate with those values at the core of what I do and how I treat others. I lean into tough conversations with leaders at all levels, and help advocate for employees while prioritizing the interests of the organization.

An experienced change maker, I prioritize the disruption of harmful systems, creating and facilitating brave spaces and opportunities for individuals to explore their intersectional identities, and empowering every individual to bring their whole self to work. Utilizing a holistic approach, I excel at collaborating with key players to craft strategic vision and operationalizing strong action steps to elevate workplace culture to a healthy culture of belonging. With an extensive background in Human Resources, operations, and programming within the non-profit, education, and tech sectors, I keep a focused eye on the long-term mission and ensure I infuse humor in everything I do along the way. I'm also not afraid to openly share my love for Brooklyn and donuts! Experienced in DEI, relationship management, conflict mediation and management, coaching, Human Resources, compliance, financial and budget management, administration, and auditing.
