SUMMARY

With 18 years of dedicated IT industry experience I've worked in both

developed small database systems before becoming a recruiter. I've worked

with a diversity of clients large and small across many industries and

cultures.

I have the industry knowledge to correctly understand staffing needs. I

have worked with and for enterprise level professionals throughout my

career, and this has given me exceptional insight in sourcing and

evaluating top talent. I take pride in my ability to identify high quality

candidates emphasizing a technical and cultural fit; doing so in as cost

and time effective manner as possible.
