What I'm looking for

I am seeking a Recruitment Manager or Talent Acquisition Manager role where I can implement scalable hiring strategies, lead high-performing teams, and align recruitment with business growth while reducing time-to-hire and improving retention.

I am a strategic Talent Acquisition leader with extensive experience driving full-cycle recruiting, workforce planning, and HR operations across multi-site, high-volume environments. I lead and develop recruiting teams, build proactive talent pipelines, and partner with business leaders to align hiring strategies with organizational goals.

Across roles at Domino's, Kraft Heinz, American Credit Acceptance, GE, and Maxim Healthcare, I have delivered measurable results — filling hundreds of positions annually, closing large staffing gaps quickly, improving time-to-hire dramatically, and growing local hiring through employee advocacy programs. I manage recruiting budgets, optimize recruitment marketing, and implement data-driven improvements to sourcing and hiring workflows.

I seek to bring scalable hiring strategies and operational rigor to a Recruitment Manager or Talent Acquisition Manager role where I can elevate organizational growth, reduce time-to-hire, and improve retention while recruiting leadership and technical talent across Data Science, Business Analytics, Operations, Supply Chain, and Healthcare.
