About

I help companies grow by hiring the right people and building the teams, systems, and culture that allow them to thrive. I’ve led recruitment and people strategy across global teams in EMEA, APAC, LATAM and North America for organisations including Novartis, Meta, Zendesk, Twitter. I’ve worked with early-stage startups (Adroll, Eightfold), high-growth scale-ups, and large multinationals — usually at moments of significant change. I enjoy working where talent strategy meets business reality: aligning people, data and decisions so teams can deliver meaningful results. I care about building high-performing environments that are supportive, ambitious, and human. If you're scaling, transforming, or looking to strengthen your leadership bench, I’m always open to a conversation.

Jul 2013Nov 2013 · 4 mos · Ireland

  • Twitter is a real-time information network that connects you to the latest stories, ideas, opinions and news about what you find interesting. Simply find the accounts you find most compelling and follow the conversations. At the heart of Twitter are small bursts of information called Tweets. Each Tweet is 140 characters long, but don’t let the small size fool you—you can discover a lot in a little space. You can see photos, videos and conversations directly in Tweets to get the whole story at a glance, and all in one place.
