About

I build predictable hiring machines for high-growth tech teams, turning headcount demands into plans, into signed offers. At Hedera > Hashgraph, reporting directly to the SVP Of HR, I stood up and led in-house recruiting through a spin-out and scale-up from 70 to 150 people while running as many as 15 roles at once and closing 49 hires in 2024. My lane: full-cycle technical recruiting- from crisp JDs and deep LinkedIn sourcing, to structured, up to deca-stage interview processes, to offer negotiations and smooth onboarding. I run weekly hiring syncs with managers, keeping stakeholders aligned, and protect candidate experience even when the pace is intense. I'm a Greenhouse & AI power-user who turns data into momentum. I also love managing teams and partners, attending conferences, and am not shy of public speaking whatsoever. I'm global, remote-savy, and know how to compose myself under high-growth pressure.

Recruitment Manager

Oct 2021 – Oct 2022 · 1 yr · Dallas, Texas, United States · Remote

At Hedera, I played a pivotal role in establishing the recruitment function from the ground up in a short time. I implemented a structured and scalable recruitment process, optimized our ATS (Greenhouse), and built lasting relationships with department heads to ensure alignment in hiring strategies. My efforts towards a white-glove service for both, the candidates and hiring teams, significantly enhanced the overall recruitment experience and efficiency within the company.
After only six months, I facilitated a critical transition of the recruitment function from Hedera to Hashgraph, ensuring a smooth handover. I successfully recruited a COS to maintain leadership continuity and led the migration of the ATS as well as handover of all templates and processes.
