Summary

I am a dedicated HR professional who loves to work closely with business leaders to align HR strategies with organizational goals.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in various HR areas in different organizations, including employee relations, satisfaction and engagement surveys, recruitment, training and development activities, among others. I have also had the opportunity to take on unconventional HR responsibilities, such as recruiting, training, and supporting volunteers during the COVID crisis situations at the Emergency Response Center, as well as coordinating the Christmas support project during peak periods at Omniva.

Among my various roles, I particularly enjoy the HR partner role, as it allows me to keep my work dynamic and diverse, leverage my knowledge and experience to the fullest extent, and continuously learn and discover new things.
