hr that gets people
get to know me!
Hi, I’m Aura! I’ve been in HR for over a decade, but what I really love is creating workplaces where people feel happy, supported, and excited to show up every day.
I believe work should be about more than just tasks and to-do lists—it’s about building a space where people feel valued and can thrive. Whether it’s helping leaders grow, designing better employee experiences, or finding new ways to bring teams together, my focus is on making work feel more human.
I care about genuine connections and understanding what FULFILLS PEOPLE. my HR VISION is to make work a place where people feel good about what they do and how they do it.
Let’s build a place where people want to be, every day!
