About

I have to profusely apologize in advance for a lack of response to messages. I am a small team of one and I receive an overwhelming amount of cold emails, LinkedIn connection requests and Inmails in response to our open roles, sales offers, etc. so it is difficult to personally get back to everyone in a timely manner without deferring to use of an AI bot. I have experience with: ~ Start-ups + Scale-ups through Series A/B/C/D ~ Technical Recruitment ~ People Operations I am: ~ a ball of energy, but also very chill ~ opinionated and passionate ~ adventurous and avid traveller ~ a rescue dog lover and owner I am interested in: ~ All things tech and business ~ Fitness, health and wellness ~ Dogs and animal rescues

Snout

Founding Recruiter

Apr 2025 – Present · 1 yr 1 mo · Toronto, Ontario, Canada · Remote

EARLY STAGE + SERIES A - Building Snout's recruitment + people operations functions from the ground up for a mission that's close to my heart in the FIN+PET tech space.
We’re building a modern veterinary financing platform (not pet insurance) that makes preventive care accessible, predictable, and stress-free. Snout wellness plans cover 100% of routine veterinary care—including vaccinations, unlimited exams, and other valuable member benefits—designed to be used, not forgotten.
By removing financial barriers for pet owners and eliminating financial risk for veterinary practices, we help pets get the care they need and give veterinarians the freedom to practice the medicine they believe in.
If you care deeply about animals, believe systems can be built more humanely, and want your work to matter in a real, tangible way—this is the moment to join.
