I’ve discovered many passions along the way, but helping people is my love language. Most recently I’ve taken up work in our Human Resources team in the Benefits Specialist role. I am currently responsible for assisting with the administration of benefits and retirement programs, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short- and long-term disability, and 401(k) plan. I am continuing to expand my knowledge, learning new things, and working to make the employee experience better through education and creative approaches to supporting wellness for our staff.
