About

I talk to a lot of tech folks - engineers, data people, cloud experts, AI/ML enthusiasts and I genuinely enjoy helping them figure out what’s next. Sometimes I have the right role, sometimes I don’t. But I believe in staying connected, because who knows what tomorrow brings? I’m not into transactional recruiting. I’m into conversations, curiosity, and keeping things human. Outside of work, I sing 🎤, read a lot (Naval Ravikant’s ideas hit different), and dive into Freudian philosophy when I want to overthink life. So yeah, I’m not your typical recruiter. If you’re exploring new roles, want to chat about career moves, or just want to connect, hit me up! No pressure, no pitch. Just people helping people!! ****Disclaimer**** Thoughts and opinions expressed on LinkedIn platform are personal, and do not necessarily represent any employer or organization's belief.
