Director Human Resources Technology at Ingram Micro

HR tools should simplify and transform, not clutter or confuse. I love solving Human Resource dilemmas. Whether it is choosing new technology and its implementation or convincing executives in dozens of countries to brazenly save money on external labor, this is where I excel. I partner to lead internal and external teams to implement tools and processes which unfetter HR and employees, allowing organizations to maximize tools, processes, and effort. Here is all the boring stuff about me that you should know. Human resources architect with over 15 years of leading teams assessing, developing and implementing tools and processes including application tracking systems (ATS), vendor management systems (VMS), customer relationship management systems (CRM), internal mobility tools, internal referral tools, business intelligence platforms (Power BI), HR branding, onboarding, time-keeping systems (Kronos Workforce Dimensions), and employee engagement. Deep background in the implementation of enterprise systems and upgrades including the preparation and presentation training to employee, management, and C-Suite. Teams led are both direct-reports and implementation teams of internal and external workers. Bilingual senior-level executive with the ability to communicate and collaborate with front-line, technical and C-Level employees in highly-matrixed organizations. Outstanding written and presentation skills delivering high-impact to intended audiences. Strong project leader who develops multi-tiered enterprise solutions.
