I’ve been an HR professional for more than 30 years. About half of that experience was in large corporations, some with more than 2500 employees and some with only four employees. My most recent corporate experience was Vice-President of Human Resources and Administration for Toshiba. During this time, I also spent about 12 years providing as needed human resources consulting services to companies across a wide range of industries. I have a B.S. in Business Administration from California State University, Pomona and an MBA from the University of Phoenix. In 2001, I earned a certificate in Life Coaching from the Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara. Currently, in addition to teaching at up to six different campuses and running my private consulting practice, I speak to groups on various HR and employment related topics such as employee retention and avoiding sexual harassment and litigation.
