What I'm looking for

I am a strategic and dynamic HR Manager with over 15 years of comprehensive experience in talent acquisition and human resources management across high-growth IT and non-IT sectors. My proven track record includes leading effective recruitment teams, optimizing hiring processes, and implementing HR strategies that align with business objectives. I am skilled in leveraging ATS tools like Greenhouse and Zoho to enhance recruitment efficiency, and I have been recognized for delivering exceptional results in workforce planning, stakeholder management, and talent development.

Throughout my career, I have received awards such as the “Hall of Fame” and “Spot Award” for my exceptional performance in closing critical positions across various sectors including Automotive, Storage, and Telecom. I successfully reduced the turnaround time for filling positions and organized impactful campus hiring events. My educational background includes a Master’s in Personal Management and a certification in HR Analytics from the University of California, Irvine, which has equipped me with the analytical skills necessary to drive data-informed recruitment strategies.
