People matter and so do results. That’s why as the Chief Human Resources Officer of Northern Trust and a member of the Management Group, my focus is on attracting, engaging, growing and rewarding talent to achieve sustainable growth. I know I am successful when employees – or as we call each other, partners - feel supported in navigating their life and careers with purpose. Doing so improves performance and adds to the greater good. It's how I aspire to lead and live. No matter what the challenge or opportunity is, I know that together we can make data-informed decisions to find collaborative and innovative paths forward.  In addition to my work at Northern Trust, I’m proud to be a champion for health equity as a trustee on the Rush University Medical Center Human Capital Compensation Committee, as well as advocate for empowering women to lead through The Chicago Network. Specialties: Business/project management, business controls, financial planning, performance management, employee engagement, compensation, employee relations, recruitment, process excellence, organization design/optimization, diversity equity and inclusion.
