About

There is nothing more exciting for me than seeing someone get a job and then flourish in that role! I love being a part of that process as a recruiter. I get to connect with new people, learn about their interests and pair them to a company I believe they'll succeed in. On more than one occasion a candidate has reached out to thank me for my role in their interview process and that feeling is truly the best. I have been in recruiting for six years now with no plans to leave the industry any time soon! I primarily focus on working with university students and early career professionals. Navigating through a professional interview, crafting a resume, or developing your personal brand can be tough, especially when you are starting your career, and I work with my candidates to coach them through all of these topics. Right now I am a sales recruiter at Gartner hiring early career individuals into account management and business development roles. *NOTE* All content on this platform is a reflection my personal opinion and beliefs and not that of my employer or company, and that constitutes past or present.
