With more than a decade of experience in human resources and over seven years leading benefits and leave strategy, Dr. Pentsil operates at the intersection of people, policy, and performance. In her corporate leadership role within a large healthcare system serving more than 4,000 employees, she oversees benefits and leave operations, leads compliance and audit initiatives, supervises high-performing teams, and designs systems that balance regulatory integrity with employee experience.
