“I love my role because I am a true partner for the people and leaders who join Accenture through an acquisition. They see me as a trusted guide and advisor, and I directly impact the experience they have at Accenture. I apply my business and HR acumen to determine the best way to apply Accenture’s assets and programs to address the needs of the acquisition.

I am supported by and feel a strong sense of belonging with the global CAHRL team.”
