What I'm looking for

I am seeking a strategic TA leadership role where I can build scalable hiring engines, partner with senior leaders, and drive data-led talent outcomes in a high-growth environment.

I am a Talent Acquisition leader with 12+ years of experience building and scaling high-impact hiring engines for fast-growing organizations, with deep expertise in leadership hiring across Tech and Non-Tech functions.

I translate business growth objectives into data-driven recruitment strategies, lead workforce planning and recruitment analytics, and have a strong track record of closing senior leadership roles with high retention and improved team effectiveness.

I have built and mentored TA teams, driven process and governance improvements, and delivered measurable results—reducing time-to-hire, improving recruiter productivity, and consistently meeting leadership hiring SLAs.
