There’s more to come
I’m still following that call
30+ years’ experience in general facilitation, global onboarding, leadership development, talent management and retention. Broad experience in English & Spanish language instruction, translation and interpretation, academic advising, organizational skills, and learning resources. Passionate about DEI programing & driving initiatives to build an inclusive workplace. Infectious enthusiasm & passion for helping people build their confidence, enhance their self-esteem to bring their authentic self to work.
