About

With over 8 years of hands-on experience in talent acquisition and recruitment operations across the APAC region, I specialize in delivering an exceptional candidate and stakeholder experience from sourcing to onboarding. My expertise spans full-cycle recruitment—including both campus and lateral hiring—remote and onsite coordination and process optimization. Currently, as APAC Recruiting Coordinator at Ethos, I am partnering with cross-functional teams to streamline hiring processes, enhance candidate engagement and support rapid business growth. Previously at Goldman Sachs, I managed high-volume technical hiring, coordinated complex interview logistics across time zones and contributed to recruitment process improvements and data-driven decision-making. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments and am passionate about building strong relationships with hiring managers, candidates, and vendors. My strengths include meticulous scheduling, proactive communication, data tracking, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
