I am the Chief People Officer at DATASKILL, a world class privately held consulting firm based in San Diego. DATASKILL has two major practice areas: Business Consulting and Technology Services. Business Consulting includes IT Strategy, Business Process Integration, IT Transformation, Architecture Assessment and Corporate Governance. Technology Services is comprised of Integration Services, Software Engineering, Managed Hosting Services, Education and Training.
After more than 12 years of leadership experience with top-tier companies, my mission is to expand and build upon the world class team at DATASKILL. Unique growth opportunities exist for DATASKILL given their excellent track record over 27 years and the company’s superb reputation among their remarkable list of Fortune 500 clients.
The focus, in my role as the Chief People Officer, is to leverage company growth opportunities through fulfillment and management of the consulting lifecycle that includes staff planning, development and deployment as well as administration of staff selection, retention and training. As part of the DATASKILL management team I assess, coordinate, and implement HR practices and programs to facilitate growth as part of the overall strategic plan for the company. I also evaluate HR procedures, data management technologies, outsourcing opportunities and any merger and acquisition opportunities.
I am currently creating a comprehensive Human Capital plan for DATASKILL. The plan will develop a world class HR division that will create short and long range budgets, goals, objectives, policies and operating procedures. It will articulate strategic recruitment, equal opportunity selection programs and programs for regulatory compliance. In addition, it will focus on administration of employee benefit programs such as health, life and disability.
When not focusing on DATASKILL, my passion is to assist companies in finding capital or investors in recommending companies to invest in. I have an excellent network of private equity firms, venture capital firms, investment banks, as well as various funding sources. If you are looking for capital funding or are an investor looking for companies to fund, please contact me.
My passions include sailing, the fantasy football, college basketball, reading, traveling and my three dogs.
