Hello! My name is Leah (lay-uh, like the Princess). 👋🏼
People & Talent Strategic Leader
I'm passionate about cultivating high-performing teams comprised of great humans. I've spent the last nine years building out the People function (Talent Acquisition, Total Rewards, Business Partners, People Ops) at Help Scout, where I was the 25th hire. Today, we're a team of 140.
I currently serve as the VP of People overseeing a team of seven.
I especially love:
Finding efficiencies and new best practices with AI
Building high performing teams and performance management processes
Creating dynamic, effective hiring processes that identify top talent
Remote work best practices
Employer branding
Culture and engagement
Diversity, equity, & inclusion
Why yes, I would love to speak at your conference/event/panel/podcast/company!
I’ve given a plethora of talks on all things recruiting, DEI, and remote company culture in a variety of settings and formats. Reach out if you’d like to work together!
