Austin State University alumni (#Axe’emjacks) with a degree in Business Management and an emphasis in Human Resources. Currently, I am a Recruiter working in the public sector. I am always eager to learn new things while making a positive impact in the industry and society.As I continue growing in the field of HR my goal in every position is to not only continue growing my own knowledge and skills, but to pave the way for Latina’s that want to pursue a career in HR. I am skilled in recruiting, new hire processes, compensation and benefits, HRIS,HR analytics, and employee relations.When I’m not on the job, I enjoy hiking, exercising, running, reading, spending time with my family and indulging my love for seeing new places.
