I am a results-driven Talent Acquisition leader optimizing recruitment, branding, and workforce planning.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Talent Acquisition leader who builds high-performing teams and scales recruitment operations across behavioral health and healthcare organizations. I combine workforce planning, employer branding, and data-driven recruiting to align talent strategy with business goals.
I have driven measurable outcomes: improving retention from 34% to 25%, reducing Indeed ad spend from $25K to $15K, cutting assessment vendor costs by 50%, and filling 500+ positions during rapid expansion. I implemented hiring manager training and behavioral-based interviewing to improve quality of hire and reduce time-to-offer to an average 22 days for critical rural clinical roles.
I lead end-to-end recruiting programs, manage ATS and HRIS tools including iCIMS, Lever, ADP Workforce Now, and PeopleSoft, and partner with executive leadership to inform workforce decisions. I’m seeking opportunities to drive scalable talent solutions, enhance candidate experience, and support organizational growth.
