Providing HR management as a Human Resources Manager (Contract) for local employers; building compliant processes and supporting site teams.
I help manufacturing and logistics sites run people operations that hold up under real‑world pressure — recruiting flows, onboarding, policy roll‑outs, investigations, workers’ comp, and the compliance mechanics (FMLA/ADA/HIPAA) that keep plants moving. At Tekni‑Plex’s Holland Global Technology Center, I supported a multi‑site environment and saw the details that break when processes aren’t owned — from leave management to immigration paperwork.
If you need a practical HR partner, I can slot into site HR quickly, clean up workflows, and coach supervisors through tough conversations and documentation so issues don’t become liabilities.

Most recently, she managed HR for Tekni‑Plex at its Holland, Ohio Global Technology Center, a site independently listed at 1445 Timberwolf Dr across company and regulatory sources. Her HR scope included policy implementation, compliance across EEOC/HIPAA/FMLA/ADAAA, recruiting, workers’ comp, and multi‑site support, consistent with being named as a Green Card contact in employer immigration filings. Beyond work, her footprint shows sustained Toledo community ties: she appears in University of Toledo Athletics donor materials, Notre Dame Academy’s donor roll (as Michelle Farbrother Portteus ’78), and a Historic St. Patrick’s parish bulletin. Separately, she is documented as having filed a $1,258.49 administrative‑priority claim in the American Signature, Inc. Chapter 11 case on Dec 10, 2025. Overall this is a locally anchored HR operator profile with limited press but multiple independent public‑record corroborations.
An outside read of the profile based on available evidence — what's strong, the one thing to tighten, and what else surfaced.
Reads as a locally anchored manufacturing/logistics HR operator with a long site‑HR stint at Tekni‑Plex Holland (GTC), modest public profile, and strong Toledo community ties. Multiple independent breadcrumbs (plant address listings, donor rolls, parish bulletin) corroborate identity and geography, while technical depth shows up in immigration‑filing contact traces rather than press or talks.
