Before stepping into recruiting, I built my career in marketing across a range of industries—and that’s exactly what sets me apart in the recruiting world. Over thirteen years in marketing taught me how to truly understand people: what drives them, how to reach them, and how to communicate in a way that sparks action. I became skilled at connecting the right message to the right audience—an ability that’s essential when identifying and placing top talent.
As a marketing specialist, I mastered the art of asking the right questions, thinking creatively to solve problems, and staying focused on outcomes. Later, as a consultant and project manager, I leaned into my strengths in communication and relationship-building. I learned to listen beyond the words, anticipate needs, and deliver impactful solutions. Working with cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments pushed me to continuously innovate and enhance performance—skills that translate seamlessly into talent acquisition.
Today, I bring a unique blend of analytical thinking, creative problem-solving, and a genuine, people-first mindset to every recruiting interaction. I understand business goals, recognize potential, and truly enjoy helping individuals grow. My career journey has shown me that success comes from listening, learning, and building real, authentic relationships.
That’s what makes me an empathetic and effective recruiter—someone who sees the full picture and helps both candidates and companies thrive.
