What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in Talent Acquisition or People Operations where I can build high-performing teams, drive data-informed hiring strategy, improve candidate experience, and support workforce planning and internal mobility.

I am a strategic Talent Acquisition leader with extensive experience designing and executing recruiting and workforce planning strategies across global, fast-paced organizations. I build scalable TA programs, elevate candidate and employee experiences, and serve as a trusted HR partner to senior leaders.

I have led and coached recruiting teams, driven capability development, and delivered recruiting insights through reporting and analytics. I have a strong record of improving operational efficiency via process improvement, talent pipelining, and TA technology and ATS expertise.

I am known for championing equitable hiring, internal mobility, succession support, and cross-functional collaboration, and I bring a blend of people-centered leadership and operational rigor to Talent Acquisition, HR, and people-operations roles.
