About

I’m a recruiter who loves building teams and watching them thrive. I come with 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience across functions and regions. Owning everything from sourcing and screening to offer management and stakeholder alignment. I’ve hired for large global organizations and early-stage startups, including building teams from 0-1 in fast-moving environments. I specialize in partnering closely with hiring managers to clarify role needs, create targeted sourcing strategies, and deliver a consistent, respectful candidate experience. I've led searches across tech and non-tech roles, GTM, cybersecurity, and leadership hiring. Currently, I’m pursuing Masters of Global Management at Royal Roads University (graduating 2026). I also hold a PG Diploma in HR & Administration from TISS. What I have worked with: • ATS: Taleo, Avature, Greenhouse, SmartRecruiters, Lever • MS Office: Advanced Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook
