Benefits Coordinator, Human Resources

I joined the HR team in February, 2004 and began my career here as an Administrative Assistant.  I provided administrative/office support to the Director and Associate Directors with a strong emphasis in recruitment/talent management.  In late September of 2009, I moved into my current role as Benefits Coordinator.  My work involves providing detailed orientation to new employees on their Carleton benefits, as well as supporting existing employees with their benefits-related questions or issues.  I work closely with our insurance vendors and brokers, complete monthly insurance carrier billing, provide support for the Benefits and the Retirement Plan Investment Review Committees’ work, meet with departing employees and guide their supervisors with instruction on required steps to support this process, work closely with the Benefits and Training Manager with Open Enrollment processes and plan audits, assist in web page maintenance and development.  Strong emphasis is placed in assuring our data system registers our employee information accurately.


At Carleton since 2004.
