Human Resources – Then and Now!

Sandee will review the evolution of Human Resources from the 1400’s to the present day.


Sandee is a certified human resources professional who began her HR career as the Personnel Director at Luce, Forward, Hamilton & Scripps in the late 70’s. With a keen interest in all aspects of human resources she focused on becoming a human resource generalist. As a generalist, she would be expected to be knowledgeable in all aspects of HR, most importantly the ever-evolving legal compliance aspects. She developed this knowledge while working at several well-respected law firms in San Diego. In 2006, she joined Cavignac & Associates as the Director of Human Resources serving the agency as its HR Director and the agency clients as a HR Risk Control Advisor. Today, as the sole proprietor of Walton Business Solutions, she serves small and medium sized businesses. Her focus is to assess the company’s HR related practices and then assist with the implementation of legally compliant HR "best practices". She also serves as a HR expert witness.
