What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead scalable, technology-forward talent acquisition functions, partner with executive and HR leaders on workforce strategy, and build high-performing recruiting teams.

I've built and led full-cycle talent acquisition functions for Fortune 500 companies, high-growth startups, and mid-market organizations. At Sparq Talent, I independently operate recruiting across technical, creative, sales, and finance roles while sustaining over $1MM in annual revenue.

Previously, I built ABIS Solutions' IT talent acquisition practice from the ground up, generating $400K+ in first-year revenue and leading a national team of 25+ recruiters. I use Claude Pro and ChatGPT daily to modernize sourcing, candidate evaluation, and recruiting workflows.
