Hello,

My story starts with humble beginnings while attending John Marshall High in Cleveland, Ohio.  I was a student in the Cooperative Office Education (COE) program and a Lawyerette (a high stepper for our basketball team).  While in COE, I took advantage of the program and began my first receptionist/secretary job at a major financial institution while maintaining a 3.8 GPA in the 11th and 12th grades.  My duties in the personnel department were primarily clerical. However, this is where I developed a passion for what is now Human Resource Management. I have seen the advent of this old but new landscape change over the last two decades, as Personnel Management evolved into Human Resources, People and Culture, Human Capital Operations, etc. 

From the bank, I went on to work as a contractor and full-time employee at various establishments of - Thorn International, Wyndham/Hilton Hotels, Cleveland Clinic, CGI, City of East Cleveland, Applied Industrial Technologies, Huntington National Bank, Cuyahoga County, Lorain County Community Action Agency, the Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland, Recovery Resources and the Near Westside Multi-service Corporation.  Several companies hired me as a contractor and consultant while completing my higher education studies.  I graduated from Baldwin-Wallace University, majoring in Psychology and double majoring in HR Management.  I then went to the University of Akron and obtained a Master's in Public Administration, specializing in non-profit management.  I then attended Ashland University and received a Master's in Education, specializing in Adult Education & Leadership.  I am an expert trainer.  Not only from experience at numerous establishments, but I was also two classes away from a Master's in Teaching & Training Technical Professionals at the University of Akron; however, the University cancelled the program before I could finish the graduate degree. 

In addition, I proudly honor that I have strong success in HR "Best Practices", process improvement and change management, coordination for annual benefit enrollment, consulting management for labor relations, hearing officer, sound decision making ability, hearing of union and non-union grievance issues, training and development, engaging adult facilitator, staff development initiatives driving corporate goal attainment, on-boarding process to corporate policies and procedures—expert communicator with the ability to resolve conflicts to win employee report and develop and implementfor effective employee communication strategies.
