Hello everyone! 👋

I truly enjoy scouting passive talent, building connections, and creating fantastic teams one hire at a time! 🌟 My strengths are exceptional communication, adept client management, and strategic development and execution. 

While my expertise lies in technical recruiting, I have gained broad experience across various areas like Crypto, machine learning, and Security, including executive searches! 🚀 As a full-cycle recruiter, I actively contribute at every stage of the hiring process—sourcing, interviewing, and negotiating—while ensuring a positive candidate experience! 🙌

I dedicate considerable time to developing hiring strategies, crafting interview rubrics and training modules, and coaching interviewers and hiring managers! Challenges? Bring them on! I enjoy getting creative with innovative approaches to overcome obstacles! 💪

On a personal note, I cherish spending time with my two kids and family, working out, and being outdoors. This year, I aim to put myself out there, take on more public speaking opportunities, and share my passion for talent acquisition.
