As the Human Resources Director at Thermo-Kool, Kimberly manages the employee life cycle, including recruiting, hiring, onboarding, and training, and administering employee benefits. With over 30 years of experience in the construction, sales, and management field, she has cultivated a unique set of skills for relationship building and a passion for bettering the lives of others through service both in her community and in a professional setting.
One of the central goals Kimberly has undertaken in her Human Resources role is her mission to create and foster a recovery safe environment within the workplace. Having experienced substance misuse firsthand and achieved sobriety for 30 plus years, she understands the intrinsic struggles that many men and women face on the road to recovery. This is why Kimberly feels it is both her duty and honor to now help pave the way for others on their return to a healthy, happy lifestyle, and why she has been inspired to create Thermo-Kool’s first Recovery Friendly Workplace (RFW) program. This program helps secure employment for recovering substance misusers where they can focus on improving their health and wellness, live self-directed lives, and strive to reach their full potential. Kimberly plans to continue this work by pushing more recovery friendly policies and further emphasizing the human aspect of Human Resources.
