Self-motivated and results-driven to succeed, Lorna Handa is a seasoned professional who has constantly set her goals to keep pace with her highest aspirations for personal excellence. Throughout her career, she has exhibited exemplary teamwork, expertise, integrity and dedication.

When Lorna Handa started working at AirXpanders Inc. in a temporary capacity, she had no idea it would inspire her to begin a new career in human resources. “I came in for a few days as a contractor, helping a couple of departments move to another building and they extended my assignment,” she said. “Three months later, I was hired for a full-time position.”

With the healthcare/medical device company for 2 ½ years, Ms. Handa has a number of responsibilities. Among them is to ensure the smooth, day-to-day operations of the office. She also schedules interviews, coordinates facility services and manages company events.

As she continues to fine-tune her skills as an office administrator, Ms. Handa also hopes to play a more active role in the company’s human resources department.
