Summary

Despite not having a previous background or degree in Employee Relations or Human Resources, I have been able to bring my skills and dedication to the team and work to learn and adapt. I have been able to be rated Highly Successful within Nike's CFE in Employee Relations based on my strong learned understanding of Nike policies, employment law, processes, building exceptional relationship with stakeholders, and serving our employees/leaders/company. When I have my mind set on something, I will put my full effort into it and show what I am capable of.
