About

With 12+ years in Talent Acquisition, I’ve led hiring across tech and non-tech functions while building and managing high-performance recruiting teams. What excites me most is solving complex hiring problems and bringing structure to unstructured, fast-moving environments. I believe hiring isn’t just about filling roles, it’s about building teams that can transform businesses. I enjoy working closely with leaders to design scalable processes, but I care just as much about keeping the candidate experience warm & human. Besides work, I love art, fitness, networking, sharing learnings, and being that helpful person others can reach out to.
