About

Currently bridging the talent gap in climate. With over a decade of experience in talent acquisition, I have built multiple teams from scratch for startups and corporates. My passion and desire to work in the field of climate and sustainability led me to build ClimateHires, a climate-focused talent advisory firm that connects top talent with organizations creating climate-positive solutions for the world. We work with climate tech startups, climate VCs, corporates hiring for sustainability leaders, or any organisation working in this space.
