Dawn Hao-De Motta

Aloha, my name is Dawn Hao-De Motta, and I am the Human Resources Manager, here at W. M. Keck Observatory located in Kamuela, Hawaii. The Human Resources team is a small, dedicated group of individuals who work to enhance the employee experience at every level of the organization.  As the Human Resources Manager, I have the privilege of working with a dynamic team of HR professionals to create an inspiring work environment!

I possess a Master of Science in Human Resources Management, achieved the SHRM-SCP certification and have over twenty years of experience working in the field of Human Resources. I was recently featured in the quarterly (Winter 2023 issue) magazine of the American Society for Healthcare Human Resources Administration. During my free time, I enjoy reading, camping, watching movies and playing video games with my ‘ohana!
