At Blue Water Staffing, I built a healthcare and IT staffing firm from scratch that became profitable in six months and reached $10M in annual billing. I designed its recruiting process, metrics and tech stack.

I built the firm’s compliance framework for local, state and federal rules, and raised employee retention 25% by building and coaching the team. I also built AI and automation into sourcing, candidate engagement and back-office work, reducing payroll costs 48%.

At MHM Services, I grew a state contract covering IT, administrative and healthcare roles from $7M to $21M. I led 400+ employees and subcontractors, put performance metrics in place that improved goal achievement 30%, and streamlined the employee lifecycle, raising retention 20%.

Earlier, I advised clients at Nisos Technologies on market strategy, cost reduction and operational efficiency, led client operations at Outsourced Consulting, and led full-cycle recruiting at Blue Water Recruiting for Walmart, Harris Teeter, Bed Bath & Beyond and Pep Boys.
