"Some men see things as they are and ask, “Why?” I dream things that never were and ask, “Why not?”
- Robert F. Kennedy
This quote resonates and serves as the guiding principle in my career. My objective has always been to pursue continuous learning, growth, and improvement. Over the course of more than 20 years, I have embraced this principle by accumulating diverse experiences through both formal education and informal opportunities.
I began my career in compensation in 2009, following a career in corporate accounting. While I have a strong affinity for numbers and analytics, I struggled to find the right fit in accounting. When a compensation role became available at my then-current company, I seized the opportunity and applied. From the very first day, I was captivated by the field!
Since transitioning into compensation, I’ve steadily expanded my expertise across total rewards and broader HR management. I would be excited to leverage this experience and support you in achieving your HR and total rewards goals.
