Bio: I currently work as HR Director at the University of Wisconsin - Madison at the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory. I have 20+ years of progressive experience working in human resources. I am a current member of GMA SHRM and National SHRM. I am also on the GMA SHRM Board of Directors as the Human Capital Conference Director since July 2021. Prior to that, I was an active volunteer member of the HCC committee since 2019. I have learned much in my years volunteering with GMA SHRM. Notably, I recognize that as a part of this chapter, we are incredibly fortunate to have MDS as our chapter administrator that provides us with support that other chapters in the state do not have access to. In my role as HCC Director and serving on the board, I understand the importance of the state chapters working together in our goals. I have been able to attend WI SHRM Volunteer Leadership Conference the past two years. I was also able to attend the WI SHRM Strategic Planning in December 2022 as an alternate to a GMA SHRM board member who was unable to go. That event was my first WI SHRM meeting, and it was the collaboration and energy at that meeting that sparked my interest in volunteering with WI SHRM Council. In my current professional role, I provide counsel to senior management on HR topics and provide mentorship to two HR staff under my supervision. I am able to successfully communicate with a variety of employees and peers. Email: swdistrictdirector@wishrm.org |
