I build high-volume recruiting pipelines that improve placement rates, candidate experience, and time-to-fill.

I've supported 300+ hires annually at 2U/edX by building proactive candidate pipelines across 60+ technical bootcamp programs.

I reduced average time-to-fill by 31%, from 45 to 31 days, by tightening outreach cadence and prioritizing high-fit candidates faster. I use Greenhouse, LinkedIn Recruiter, Salesforce, and Tableau to monitor pipeline health and act on hiring trends.

I previously managed 40–50 candidates at a time and sustained a 99% placement rate through fast, genuine rapport, career guidance, and hands-on support through interviews, offers, and placement. As an Assistant Manager, I led a team of six across healthcare placement programs.

I'm now building direct relationships with 200+ prospective candidates annually at Hult International Business School, using CRM data to guide high-touch, multi-month decisions.
