About

Welcome to my page β€” nice to see you here! πŸ‘‹ I’m an end-to-end recruiter specializing in technical and GTM hiring, with a focus on clear strategy, fast execution, and finding the right fit without the drama. My background is a little different. I started in mental health, which taught me how to ask the right questions, read between the lines, and connect with people in a real way. That carries over into how I recruit β€” efficient, direct, and, most importantly, human. I’m at my best when I’m building something β€” whether it’s a team, a search strategy, or a cleaner hiring process. I care about good communication, sharp execution, and representing a company in a way that actually reflects the brand.
