Bio
Aaron Duke
Tianna is a must have leader in your HR organization. She joined my team a few months before Covid hit, changing our 4000+ workforce from 100% in office to 95% remote. She had just gotten up to speed on our legacy programs and processes leading our Employee Recognition program. Then the world changed, and along with it the nature of keeping employees connected and engaged. We trusted Tianna to stay ahead of the curve. She learned new technologies, adopted new mindsets and stayed close to the evolving needs of employees. She was instrumental in leading our Recognition program from a reactive approach to proactively finding the opportunities that work from home brings. Tianna was unable to escape the personal impact of Covid as she had to relocate her family to Texas. And, because we are a California state agency requiring all employees to reside within the state, we reluctantly have to part ways. If you are looking for an HR Professional to lead your team to perform better and stay more connected in this new normal, I highly recommend you hear what she has to offer.

Having worked with Tianna for the past several years in the Employee Engagement/Culture space at State Fund, I am happy to recommend her for future opportunities. Tianna is an excellent project manager. She also is a gifted facilitator, especially in the virtual setting. As the manager of Corporate Social Responsibility at State Fund, I've several times relied on Tianna to host Webinars with hundreds of people in attendance. She was always polished and is able to create a welcoming environment. Her ability to successfully serve our customers in an HR setting is exceptional. Her attention to detail, organization and timeliness make her an asset and delightful co-worker.
