At Cardinal Education, I own full-cycle hiring for the California HQ, sourcing and placing education and business professionals across U.S.-based and remote Philippine requisitions. I advise department heads on role calibration and compensation benchmarking, helping cut average time-to-hire by 25%.

As an independent recruiter and headhunter, I filled 80+ roles for U.S. and SEA clients, managing the process from Boolean sourcing through offers and onboarding. I also handled multiple client accounts and compensation benchmarking.

At Curran Daly & Associates, I delivered recruitment and executive search for IT, Finance and Healthcare roles across APAC and U.S. markets. Sharper sourcing and calibration helped cut average hiring time by 20%.

Across my earlier roles, I recruited technical and corporate talent at AECOM GBS and Manila Recruitment, and led full-lifecycle recruitment for FMCG, e-commerce and IT clients at Asia Select Inc. I developed sourcing playbooks and was named Recruiter of the Month for five consecutive months.
