“I have learned over the years that working in HR can sometimes be very hard – but it can also be immensely rewarding. In our profession we are afforded the opportunity every day to create meaningful relationships with both employers and employees. Establishing these relationships are one of my favorite things about working in HR. I enjoy developing relationships through listening to the client, creating a foundation of trust, and understanding their goal(s). By having a strong rapport with my clients, it allows me to better advise and enable them to ensure their organization is successful. I am excited to be able to provide my skills and experiences to our KMA clients.”
