HR Administrator | Payroll & HRIS Specialist | CPHR Candidate | Alberta Employment Standards

About

HR isn't just policy and paperwork — it's building the infrastructure that lets people do their best work. I'm an HR professional with 3+ years of progressive experience in payroll administration, HRIS management, full-cycle recruitment, and compliance across Alberta-based organizations. Currently at Alberta Reno & Restoration, I manage bi-weekly payroll for 50+ employees with 100% regulatory compliance under Alberta Employment Standards, WCB, and OH&S — and built an automated timesheet system that reduced payroll discrepancies by 40% and achieved 98% accuracy. Across my roles, I've delivered measurable results: improved candidate screening efficiency by 45%, cut onboarding paperwork by 40%, and built a real-time HR KPI dashboard that improved workforce planning efficiency by 35%. As a CPHR Candidate and TRU Human Resource Management graduate, I bring both the technical foundation and the practical, process-improvement mindset that growing teams need. I'm actively seeking HR Administrator and HR Coordinator roles in Edmonton (open to hybrid and on-site). If you're building a people-first workplace and need someone who can own payroll, HRIS, and compliance end-to-end — let's connect.
