Chief People Officer
Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States
People are the heartbeat of any organization - and from that awareness, grew my love for a career in Human Resources.
I’m deeply passionate about the full spectrum of the employee experience: from welcoming new talent through seamless onboarding, to fostering strong employee relations, and designing strategies that drive meaningful engagement.
With a focus on diversity and inclusion, equitable compensation, and thoughtful Total Rewards design, I’m committed to creating environments where every employee can thrive. I believe that when people feel seen, supported, and empowered, organizations shine brighter.
My leadership style is grounded in servant leadership — I lead with both drive and empathy, a powerful combination that helps build trust, fuel performance, and inspire growth. I’ve had the privilege of building strong partnerships with executive leaders and board members, guiding organizations through transformational growth — including mergers and acquisitions — while leading incredible People Operations teams in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
At the core of everything I do is a belief: when you take care of people, they’ll take care of your business.
