About

In an industry full of noise and empty promises, I believe in a different approach. Recruitment should be guided by expertise, not sales talk. My tech recruitment journey began in 2014, and includes valuable experience as an IT Infrastructure Consultant at Accenture. This technical background gives me unique insight into the roles we fill and the challenges our clients face. What drives me: 🔹 Deep Technical Understanding - Recognizing quality across technical disciplines and leadership roles 🔹 Radical Honesty - Setting realistic expectations that lead to better decisions 🔹 Practical Guidance - Helping structure hiring approaches based on market realities 🔹 Balance of Freedom and Results - Creating systems where talent thrives Since joining Doghouse in 2019 and progressing to Partner and COO, I've focused on connecting the right people with the right opportunities through expertise and honesty. My experience gives me perspective from both sides of the tech recruitment equation. Looking to build a strong tech team? Let's connect.
