Junior L&D Specialist / HR Generalist with a QA background in
the IT industry. Transitioning into HR with a strong focus on
onboarding, employee adaptation, internal communications, and
HR process coordination.

I am motivated to help make learning and adaptation a meaningful
and engaging experience rather than a formality. I am eager to
support people from their first days in the company by providing
clear guidance, constructive feedback, and a safe, engaging
environment for growth.

I am strong in process organization, documentation, and
analytics, detail-oriented, and comfortable working with feedback
and multiple stakeholders. I actively invest in self-learning and
continuous development, and I am eager to grow together with a
company that values partnership, transparency, and care for
people.​
