About

I’m a Program & Change Management leader with 12+ years of recruiting & 5+ years of designing scalable TA systems and operational governance across global organizations. I partner with HR, IT, business leaders and vendors to turn manual/fragile processes into governed, auditable and adoptable systems — for example, reducing time-to-offer-acceptance from 40+ days to ~30–35 days and lifting offer acceptance above 75% through process redesign and governance. I’ve led global system rollouts and adoption (Greenhouse, iCIMS, Brighthire, SourceWhale) and built SOX-compliant offer processes. If you’re hiring a program leader to drive cross-functional transformation, let’s connect.
