About

This page started when I was scared out of my mind, couldn’t get a job, and kept getting told I didn’t have what it took to be a recruiter. I’ve been documenting my career journey for years. This page is all over the place, I’ve changed my mind a million times, and I will continue to do so even if it’s not “on brand” for something. I enjoy what I do. I like working with people, connecting them to opportunities, helping them identify their unique gifts and ways they can serve others. I want my page to be about serving, loving, and staying silly and joyful in times that might not always be the easiest. If you’re into that sort of thing, follow along. If you feel compelled to reach out or tell me something, please do. I’ll try to respond :)
