About

Professional summary

I am a Human Resource professional with a strong foundation in business administration and hands-on experience across employee relations, recruitment, onboarding, payroll support, and administrative coordination.

I have worked in both strategic and operational HR environments, where I supported daily attendance tracking, staff documentation, leave management, and employee data handling with a strong focus on confidentiality and accuracy.

My experience includes assisting with recruitment processes, supporting member and employee engagement, preparing correspondence and forms, and helping teams maintain organized records and smooth workflows.

I also bring customer support and administrative experience, which has strengthened my communication skills, problem-solving ability, and capacity to work effectively with diverse stakeholders.

I am proficient in Microsoft Excel and other office and collaboration tools, and I use data management and reporting skills to support HR operations and decision-making.

I am a committed team player who values positive workplace relationships, continuous learning, and contributing to efficient, people-centered organizations. My long-term interest is to grow into strategic HR, management, and consulting roles.
