About Founder
I‘m Azi, a Juris Doctor graduate from Western Michigan University, Cooley Law School. I began my experience in the legal and insurance industries, I specialized in workers’ compensation cases. In the public sector, I represented the Los Angeles County Fire Department in employment matters. Transitioning to the healthcare industry, I served as an employee relations manager, advising on employment law, conducting investigations, and managing EEO claims. I stayed in the employee relations industry at the Walt Disney Company and later Marvell Technology. After years of conducting investigations, I transitioned into a Global HR Business Partner role at Renesas Electronics Corporation, supporting the VP of Central Engineering; where after a year I was given the opportunity to PM projects and serve as Chief of Staff. Now as the owner of 403 Ops Consulting, my team and I provide legal, HR, relationship building and wellness consulting services for individuals and companies.

The top 1% of peers in her areas of expertise
I was extremely fortunate to have worked with Azi when she worked as Chief of Staff for the Renesas Central Engineering Division. Azi was critical part of our leadership team in managing a global team of approximately one thousand team members. Her broad scope included strategy, organization design, tool deployment, team building coaching, staff and monthly operations meetings, talent acquisition, contract reviews and negotiations. Prior to that she also worked as our HR business partner. Throughout her tenure she demonstrated extreme ownership and professionalism in all assigned tasks. Having worked with a large number of people in semiconductors, I would rate Azi in the top 1% of peers in her areas of expertise. She has the rare combination of multiple disciplines including HR, Law, work-style and business acumen that enables her to effectively problem solve broad range of organizational challenges. I provide her my highest recommendation.
