About

Talent acquisition Specialist. There’s nothing like the thrill of a candidate’s enthusiastic “Yes!” to an offer and an equally pleased hiring manager who just landed a top performer. Perhaps even more satisfying is successfully recruiting an eligible candidate and then seeing them develop a billion-dollar product. Knowing my efforts impact the bottom line keeps me going every day. Candidates often tell me they appreciate my responsiveness and transparency. You will always know where you stand in our hiring process. If I have no news, I will at least communicate that I have no news. When it’s time for honest feedback, I will give it. My colleagues and I deliver a top-notch candidate experience whether or not you’re hired.
