I have amazing friends & family so I enjoy spending time with them. I love watching a good movie, going for weekend trips, listening to live music (all kinds), shopping, and probably my favorite thing to do is play with my nieces & nephews!

What led you to being an HR coach?
I have worked in the HR field in some capacity for many years, so I think it was a natural progression. Being an HR Coach allows me a lot of flexibility.

My clients give me the opportunity to partner with them to affect positive change in their organizations.

What do you like about Emplicity?
Emplicity is like a second family to me. We work together as a team and each employee is encouraged to be themselves. Lisa's constant support and knowledge has allowed me to grow as an HR professional.

What are your underlying motives with a new client?
To get to know the client and their organization and determine where their human resource needs are.

Favorite music, band, song of all time?
I love all types of music...even country. My mood usually dictates what I listen to, from Eric Clapton to AC/DC to George Strait and everything in between!

Favorite places to go?
I love to visit my parents in Northern CA, take weekend trips to San Diego, and was lucky enough to visit Europe this year!
