About

With over 17 years of experience in Talent Acquisition, People Strategy, and HR Operations, I’ve had the opportunity to partner with fast scaling organizations across the IT Services, SaaS, Tech Product, and Cloud based sectors. From building HR functions from the ground up to leading high impact hiring programs across engineering, leadership, and niche tech domains. My focus has always been on aligning talent with business strategy. I’ve worked closely with CXOs, business heads, and founders to design workforce planning, succession frameworks, and HiPo development initiatives that prepare organizations for future growth. Whether it’s enhancing the candidate experience, driving culture, or leading performance management systems, I bring both a strategic and execution focused lens to everything I do. Currently exploring opportunities to: -Consult or collaborate on talent strategy projects -Support organizations in scaling their people operations -Partner with founders and HR leaders navigating rapid growth -Connect with clients seeking support with leadership hiring, talent development, or employee engagement If you're building something exciting in the tech space or simply wish to connect and exchange ideas, I’d love to hear from you.
