Hi, I’m Marissa! I’ve worked across multiple sides of the people function, which gives me a well-rounded perspective on what actually works.• I started my career as a management consultant at PwC. I traveled the nation working hands-on with the world’s largest tech giants during the 2010s boom, learning the mechanics at global scale. • As an employee at LinkedIn, I saw firsthand how culture can be a company’s competitive advantage. I partnered directly with C-suite leaders to implement global change. • I’ve been the first executive People Leader at VC-backed startups (series B-D), led M&A, expanded our global workforce and built the HR department from the ground up. • Across public and private companies, I’ve led every facet of HR (talent acquisition, HR business partnership, compensation, benefits, talent development, org design, board relationships and everything in between). I’m a business-minded leader obsessed with the mechanics of growth. I’ve learned through experience what works at each company stage. I’m currently an executive people leader at a public company.
