A Decade of Building Technology Teams

Over the last 10+ years , I have partnered with respected technology organizations to identify, engage and hire exceptional talent across engineering, product, data and platform organizations.

My journey spans global consumer brands, enterprise software pioneers and high-growth technology companies, including Nike, Celonis, AlphaSense, VMware, Target, UiPath and Snapdeal.
