About

Recruiting product managers and engineers at Hims & Hers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm a USC Viterbi graduate who began my career in technical recruiting shortly after graduating with a degree in Computer Science. I was a Machine Learning Sourcer at Google for 2 years before moving on to a leadership staffing role with Meta for 5 years. I now recruit for the telehealth company Hims & Hers. I am often asked why I decided to go into recruiting over engineering, and my answer is always the same: I am passionate about recruiting! I love finding the leaders who will inevitably change the world as we know it. I have been a recruiter for Full Stack, Backend, and ML Engineers, Security Leadership, and Product Management Leadership. I source, identify and qualify candidates across Monetization/Ads, Integrity, Privacy, Messaging, Video, Recommendation Systems, Generative AI, Infrastructure, and ML.
