Employment History

I began my career as an accountant, where I built a strong foundation in financial operations. Over time, I discovered a deep passion for analysis, which inspired me to transition into the field of payroll tax analysis.

At Slalom, I started as a Payroll Tax Analyst, where I expanded my expertise in both payroll tax and broader payroll operations across multiple domains. Through hands-on experience and cross-functional collaboration, I deepened my understanding of compliance, systems, and process optimization.

Recently, I was promoted to Payroll Manager, now overseeing the entire payroll program for the US and Canada, including payroll tax. In this role, I continue to apply my analytical mindset to lead strategic initiatives, ensure regulatory compliance, and support a seamless payroll experience for employees.
