April Collier

Director of Human Resources and Compliance

Loyal & Easygoing

April is a graduate of Liberty University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration and an Associates degree in Biblical Studies. She is a longstanding employee of L&E Research, having worked as a recruiter, an onsite Client Services Representative, a Finance Admin, Manager, and Director. As L&E’s current Director of HR and Compliance, this role aligns with her passion for order and people.

Originally from Ontario, Canada, April became a US Citizen on her husband’s birthday in 1997. Outside of work, she enjoys watching movies, theater shows and dancing.

But meeting people who have made a huge impact in the world ultimately inspire April because they remind her how much one life can truly make a difference.
