My Approach
Over the last 15 years, my philosophy to recruiting includes a passion for people, the ability to navigate a constantly evolving landscape, and a commitment to operating with integrity. This involves developing a deep understanding of the target industry, building strong relationships with top executives and industry leaders, and utilizing technology to streamline the recruiting process. It also involves conducting in-depth candidate assessments, focusing on relationship building, and continuously adapting and improving.
