Briefly describe your organization, role, and how long you have been involved.
I currently work at Bonney Plumbing, Electrical, & HVAC as the Human Resources Director. I oversee all HR functions to include M&A due diligence, recruiting, employee relations, executive coaching, training development, benefits, and compliance.

How many years have you been in HR? What do you enjoy about the industry? 
Technically I have held an HR title since 2012. However I also spent 12 years in the Army and spent much of that time dealing with personnel issues, training, on and off-boarding, discipline and policies. I absolutely love the ability I have to help people on a daily basis in HR. Plus no day is ever the same and I really enjoy that.

How long have you been involved with SAHRA? 
I've been a SAHRA member since 2006.

How has membership with SAHRA affected you and your career? 
SAHRA is an incredibly useful resource and gives me a lot of peace of mind knowing that if I run across a problem or an issue I have not faced, there is a huge network of HR professionals out there to turn to for advice and guidance.

What challenges do you believe will face the HR industry in the future? 
Wow...where to begin with this. HR is an ever changing field and now even more so after the COVID-19 pandemic. I think we will see continued changes in companies moving to more remote work and flexible work locations which will definitely be a challenge here in CA. I also think that greater political polarization will mean more changes to federal employment laws and compliance.

In your spare time, what do you do for fun? 
Spare time? What's that? I have 4 sons ranging from 7 to 15 who keep me pretty busy. Luckily they are all starting to share my interests as well so much of our time is taken up with sports, scuba diving, kayaking, hiking and generally loving the outdoors.

What is one thing most of your colleagues don’t know about you? 
I collect watches, so if you don't actually work with me or aren't paying attention, you'll probably never see me wear the same watch twice in the same few months.

Briefly describe your organization, role, and how long you have been involved

I am a Talent Consultant (aka HR Manager) with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. I've been an HR generalist with the firm for several years. I started my career in audit, but transitioned into HR after about 3 years, and I've not looked back! I've been with the firm going on 28 years (excluding a 6 year break). The people I work for and with are the reason why I've stayed with PwC.

How many years have you been in HR? What do you enjoy about the industry?

I've been in HR for about 25 years. What I enjoy most about the industry is helping others in all aspects of their career.

How long have you been involved with SAHRA?

I've been with SAHRA for approximately five years actively. I'd joined SAHRA once I had my HR credential. Honestly, I joined strictly for the recertification credits. It wasn't until Julie Worley, then President, reached out to get involved that I really committed to the Association. I am so grateful she did!

How has membership with SAHRA affected you and your career?

I've built a broader network of HR peers, which I value greatly - not for what the network can do for me but for the friendships and potential friendships they offer. Taking on board roles really stretched me in a number of ways. I've increased my leadership skills and confidence, which has positively impacted my career and brand in my job.

What challenges do you believe will face the HR industry in the future?

I think the continued increase and complexity of labor laws and regulations, especially with the Covid-19 impact, will continue to challenge our industry. 

In your spare time, what do you do for fun?

I enjoy cooking, baking, reading, walking and doing puzzles. I'm fairly boring! But I love what I do and I love being with my family while unplugging!

What is one thing most of your colleagues don’t know about you?

I never planned on being an HR professional, but I'm so happy that this is where I landed.

Briefly describe your organization, role, and how long you have been involved. 
I am the Director of Human Resources, Diversity & Inclusion for Christian Brothers High School, a Lasallian Catholic, college preparatory high school. Here, I have faithfully served the faculty and staff in all facets of human resources and payroll since November of 2014.

How many years have you been in HR? What do you enjoy about the industry? 
I have over 20 years experience in Human Resources. The biggest draw to the industry for me is that it is service oriented. I am tremendously inspired by being able to help and serve individuals the way that I have been helped and supported by human resource professionals over the years.

How long have you been involved with SAHRA? 
Over 20 years, on and off.

How has membership with SAHRA affected you and your career? 
I started with SAHRA in college with the organization and it led to my first HR internship. Throughout my career I could always count on SAHRA to provide timely information and networking opportunities just when I needed it.

What challenges do you believe will face the HR industry in the future?
Equity and inclusion, diversity as it relates to many different generations in the workplace.

In your spare time, what do you do for fun? 
Write, read and home decorating.

What is one thing most of your colleagues don’t know about you? 
I was born in Tokyo, Japan
