As the Head of People at Singularity University, Chez manages all aspects of Human Resources for the company and is driven by the philosophy that if all people are given the right systems, support and opportunity, they are capable of exponential greatness. She is committed to creating an environment for managers to develop highly engaged employees and for​ all​ employees to feel valued and successful.

In her previous role on the People Team at Omidyar Network, Chez managed people data, created policies and served as a peer coach working with employees on topics such as giving and receiving feedback, goal setting and work-life balance.

Chez, herself, is a ‘survivor’ of generalized anxiety disorder and postpartum depression and a firm believer that people need to be able to tap into a variety of resources to help support mental wellbeing. Chez is excited to see how TAGTM, “The Anxiety GameTM”, becomes part of that network of treatment.
