About

Software engineer turned TA, I’ve spent 7+ years primarily hiring for GTM roles, along with some tech positions. I thrive on juggling multiple responsibilities, bringing fun into work, and driving stakeholder delight, smooth candidate experiences, and process efficiency. I hire the right people for the right roles, track hiring metrics closely, and constantly look for ways to improve them—solving tricky challenges with energy, impact, and a smile. Open to conversations, collaborations, and meeting amazing people along the way.
