Meet our talent recruitment team

As the Talent Onboarding Coordinator, I ensure that our new hires are processed through our system accurately and in a timely manner. I’m also here to answer questions and help them feel confident that they have completed all of their necessary onboarding materials before orientation day. I love my job and enjoy this high energy team. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t learn something new!

My weekends are filled with activities for my two kiddos, Lainy and Archer. My husband and I are also avid DIYers – our biggest project including the rehab of an old Air Stream camper which we’ve affectionately named “Reba.”
