👋🏽 Hi, I’m Q!
I am a business driven people executive, advisor, investor and coach with a passion for building organizations to help change the world.
I am currently the Chief People & Communications Officer at Paper where I serve as an executive team member and lead all functions for the People, Public Relations and Communication teams.
Prior to that, I spent 5 years at Airbnb, where I dedicated the first 4 years (2018-2022) building our global people operations team from ground up and incubating several new people programs. In 2022, I expanded my role to also lead Airbnb's global Live and Work Anywhere center of excellence to reimagine the future of our offices and revolutionize global mobility in close partnership with our G&A functions, public policy and product teams.
I've been fortunate and privileged to have worked in various functions, in a variety of industries; management consulting (Deloitte), in-house Fortune 500s (Aon, JLL & GE), a private equity backed firm (The Warranty Group - later acquired by Assurant for a 1.9B deal during my tenure), hyper growth late-stage firms backed by Tier 1 VCs (Airbnb - went IPO during my tenure), and my own ground up startups (GoQuali & Supertek Scientific). I bring a unique perspective from each of my experiences to be a creative people & business leader. Learn more about me by listening to my podcasts interviews and conference speaking engagements by visiting my speaking events page or my LinkedIn profile.
In addition to my professional career, I am a startup mentor, angel investor and advisor for numerous startup accelerator programs at PeopleTech Partners, Hacking HR, Workplace Accelerator, and an advisory board member at numerous companies globally.
My love for music and film, comes with a passion to support aspiring artists and has led me to start a record label. I've also earned a live sound engineering certification, enabling me to setup audio for live concerts and performances. Check out my most recent production here. I have executive produced 2 films, one of which has won numerous awards at global film festivals. Learn more about my films at IMDb here.
My fun fact is that I was a competitive swimmer & snooker player in high school.
