As Walk West’s People and Culture Manager, Mackenzie is responsible for coordinating new employee onboarding, managing employee relations, and overseeing performance management. In addition, she is a steward for workplace safety and HR compliance for all of our Walk Westies. She is an integral part of the Walk West team — consistently showing empathy and kindness to everyone she comes across. She knows that there’s always more to it than what meets the eye.
Specializing in talent acquisition and retention, employee engagement, benefits administration, and process improvement, Mackenzie has worked in HR since 2012. Prior to her generalist roles Mackenzie worked in recruiting; starting out in higher education/admissions before moving into a corporate setting.
A self-identified Raleigh boomerang, Mackenzie is a graduate of Meredith College and returned to Raleigh in 2016, where she met her husband, Mark. On weekends you can usually catch them walking around Lake Lynn with their dog Riggins, watching re-runs of The Office, or cheering for NC State Baseball.
