I have hired hundreds of people and helped manage their careers. I have reviewed thousands of resumes and job descriptions. I can help you to know what internal and agency recruiters and hiring managers look for and maybe more importantly, what gets ignored!
I am available on a freelance basis for:
✔ Interview coaching (tips on how to succeed in real world interviews)
✔ Career advising (perspective on next roles and help defining career path)
✔ Resume rewriting and job application assistance (tailored for real hiring managers and AI screening alike)
If you’re a job seeker, I’ll help you stand out and get interviews faster. Nervous about the interview? I can help prepare, do mock interviews, and research the company/interview processes so you are the most ready you can be. Decision time? I'm an impartial ear to hear your thoughts and offer perspective about how to proceed.
Additionally, I am available for voice acting roles!

I work with founders and CEOs who want their hiring process to reflect their values. It should be organized and effective, and it should also be respectful and fair for everyone involved.
As a fractional Talent Acquisition and hiring process leader, I partner with tech companies, nonprofits, and for‑purpose organizations focused on social, health, and environmental impact. I help you design and run hiring in a way that supports your mission and your business, without turning it into a constant source of friction for your team or your candidates.
Over the past 15+ years, I have worked with early‑stage startups, growth companies, and larger enterprises in tech and related industries, as well as nonprofits and volunteer‑driven organizations. My background includes hands‑on recruiting, building out TA functions, and improving how companies show up to candidates, from the first touchpoint through the signed offer.
**What I do**
- Lead or support full‑cycle recruiting for key hires (technical, AI/ML, CX, G&A, and leadership roles).
- Design or tune your hiring process so it is clear, consistent, and easy to run.
- Run focused sourcing sprints to build a strong pipeline of qualified candidates.
- Help you choose and set up the right tools (ATS and sourcing platforms) so your team is not fighting the system every day.
- Advise on how your employer brand and candidate experience come across in the market.
**Who I work with**
- Founders and CEOs who care about both performance and people, and who want a high‑EQ approach to hiring.
- Tech, AI/NLP, and SaaS companies that need a practical TA partner who can roll up their sleeves.
- Nonprofits and for‑purpose organizations focused on social impact, health, education, or the environment, and who want their hiring experience to match their values.
**Examples of past work**
- For an AI/NLP healthcare software company, led fractional, full‑cycle recruiting and filled 16 roles across engineering, professional services, IT, and marketing.
- For a 100% volunteer organization, built and expanded the Talent Acquisition function across the US, evaluated several ATS options, and implemented JazzHR.
- For venture‑backed and growth‑stage firms, supported executive and specialist searches, candidate evaluation for studies, and talent mapping for key functions.
**How I work**
- Flexible, fractional support, from short, focused projects to ongoing 20–40 hours per month.
- US‑based (Pacific Time), remote, and comfortable working directly with founders, HR leaders, or functional heads.
- Straightforward communication, regular check‑ins, and a calm, steady approach, especially when roles are critical or time‑sensitive.
Clients have described me as professional, collaborative, reliable, and solution‑oriented, and many have chosen to work with me more than once. If you want a talent partner who understands both process and people, and who treats candidates the way you would want your own team to be treated, I would be glad to talk about how we can work together.
