My experience with both product & service-based organizations has helped me build requisite expertise in placing executives across different types of firms (from start-up to conglomerates) and spanning across diverse sectors like advertising, automotive, e-commerce, gaming, media, publishing, finance, IT & Infrastructure, product development, consumer, healthcare and social networking. I believe in building long-lasting work relationships with my collaborators, understanding their business needs and helping them grow by bringing the best talent from the market to their teams.
