HR & Talent Acquisition Professional with 6+ years of international experience helping remote and fast-growing companies build scalable people operations and hire exceptional talent. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, an HR Full Stack certification, and I'm currently completing my Master's in HR Management.
I've led HR functions from the ground up, scaled teams internationally, managed full-cycle recruitment across technical and non-technical roles, and built HR processes that improve efficiency and employee experience. My experience spans startups, SaaS, cybersecurity, enterprise environments, and global remote teams.
I've successfully hired talent across Europe, the US, the Middle East, Africa, LATAM, and APAC, while implementing and optimizing systems such as Zoho People, Zoho Recruit, BambooHR, Deel, Sage People, Recruitee, ClickUp, and more.
Whether you need support with recruitment, HR operations, onboarding and offboarding, policy development, process optimization, or building structure in a growing organization, I bring a hands-on, proactive approach focused on delivering results.

Most hiring problems aren't sourcing problems — they're signal problems. The right candidates exist. They're not scrolling job boards; they're building things, contributing to open-source projects, and ignoring InMails from recruiters who didn't do their homework. I find them anyway.
Over 8 years across talent acquisition, technical recruiting, and sourcing for SaaS, R&D, and product teams, I've built pipelines from zero to fully hired in under 90 days, managed 8–10 concurrent roles across three countries simultaneously, and delivered shortlists that hiring managers actually use — because they're built on scorecards, not guesswork.
My sourcing goes well beyond LinkedIn Recruiter. I work with Boolean search, X-Ray techniques across GitHub, Stack Overflow, and open-web sources to reach candidates that standard searches never surface. Every shortlist is structured and defensible — you know exactly why each person is on it, and interviews are never wasted.
A Master's in Business Law means I also understand the compliance and legal dimensions of hiring, which matters more than most clients realise until it suddenly does.
I work best with scaling SaaS companies, startups rebuilding a broken hiring process, and founders who are tired of interviewing the wrong people.
I also design the HR systems that make hiring sustainable long-term:
Performance Improvement Plans, Individual Development Plans, Career
Development Frameworks, and Competency Matrices — built on the same
rigor I apply to sourcing. My recent AI certifications (Microsoft,
Anthropic) mean I build these tools to work with modern workflows,
not against them.
If you need shortlists that convert — not just CVs that show up — let's talk.

🌟 Available for part time roles at the moment 🌟
I help startups and scaleups hire the right people - fast.
With 8+ years in full-cycle recruitment across AI, SaaS, Healthcare Tech, Manufacturing, and Hospitality, I've built and scaled teams for companies across the US, EU, and Africa. I work as an independent recruiter - which means you get senior-level expertise, without the overhead of an agency, and without anyone taking a cut of the placement.
I've recruited for founders who needed their first 10 hires and for leadership teams scaling past 100. From individual contributors to C-suite, I take full ownership of the process and deliver - without needing to be managed.
By partnering closely with founders and hiring managers, I translate real business needs into strategic hires that raise the bar. I don't just fill roles. I find people who make a difference.
