Summary

With over 12 years of full desk, talent acquisition experience supporting both healthcare,technical and non- technical verticals, I attribute my success to working backwards with my end goal in mind, building trust with my stakeholders, and relying on metrics and data to make objective decisions. I am a subject matter expert in talent acquisition and a conduit of information. While obtaining my Certified Professional Certification I leverage that knowledge to partner with senior leadership to identify functional needs and workforce planning strategies to meet the business needs.
