I’ve spent my career working at the intersection of people, hiring, and organizational processes. With over 10 years of experience in talent acquisition and HR, I’ve led full-cycle recruiting across roles ranging from entry-level to executive leadership. My background includes supporting hiring strategy, improving recruiting workflows, and partnering with hiring managers to deliver consistent and effective hiring outcomes. I offer practical, straightforward support in: - Resume review and rewriting* - Interview preparation and mock interviews* - Part-time recruiting support (sourcing, screening, and full-cycle recruiting) *Fixed-rate services are available for resume reviews and interview preparation. My approach is grounded in how hiring actually works. I focus on clarity, structure, and helping both candidates and organizations make stronger, more informed decisions. For organizations, I can step in to support recruiting needs on a part-time or project basis, providing structure, consistency, and experienced execution without the need for a full-time hire. If you’re looking for direct, actionable support—whether preparing for your next opportunity or strengthening your hiring process—I’m happy to help.

I’m the founder of Haderak, a consulting company providing recruiting and talent advisory services, as well as developing a platform leveraging Org Psych and ML and to help companies identify and recruit the best talent for their organization. For the last 5.5 years I spent my spare time pursuing a semi-professional running career with the goal of qualifying for the 2024 US Olympic Marathon Trials; I’m now focused on building Haderak. Previously, I founded PopShop, a four-year-old recruiting agency started in the Bay Area that specialized in providing customized talent solutions to early-stage SaaS companies, and recruiting for IC to SVP-level openings. I have experience recruiting in agency, RPO, and in-house environments at companies like Braze (formerly Appboy) and LiveIntent, managing internal teams, ATS implementation and management, and stay on top of current trends in recruiting and HR technology. My clients have included major startups in the SaaS space as well as other B2B and B2C companies, backed by top VCs like First Round Capital, Kleiner Perkins, and Lightspeed Ventures. I understand my bill rate is likely higher than most recruiters on Upwork; it's unlikely that I'll accept projects below this rate, but am open to brief engagements if you feel its more appropriate. That said, if you’re open to another member of my team doing the majority of the work, with my supervision, we can provide much more flexible rates.

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.

I help organizations build the people, processes, and operational infrastructure needed to scale efficiently, attract top talent, and create exceptional employee experiences. As Founding Partner of Greenfield Source Advisors, I partner with executive teams to strengthen recruiting, human resources, talent strategy, benefits administration, and business operations. My focus is helping companies create practical, scalable systems that support growth, improve efficiency, and allow leaders to focus on what matters most: building great businesses. For more than two decades, I have worked alongside organizations ranging from emerging startups and privately held businesses to complex, highly regulated companies in life sciences, healthcare, technology, manufacturing, and professional services. Throughout every engagement, my objective remains the same: align people, processes, and operations to drive stronger business outcomes. My expertise includes: • Executive Search and Strategic Recruiting • Talent Acquisition Leadership and Process Optimization • HR Operations and People Infrastructure • Employee Onboarding and Offboarding Programs • Workforce Planning and Organizational Design • Benefits Administration and Employee Benefits Coordination • Benefits Evaluation, Vendor Selection, and Renewal Support • ATS Selection, Implementation, and Optimization • Performance Management and Employee Development Programs • Employee Relations and HR Compliance Support • Recruiting Operations and Hiring Manager Enablement • Fractional HR Leadership and Operational Support As organizations grow, many operational challenges are addressed by adding more software, more process, or more headcount. I help companies take a different approach by creating streamlined systems that improve visibility, eliminate inefficiencies, and enable teams to operate more effectively. This includes: • Building scalable recruiting processes that improve hiring outcomes and reduce time-to-fill • Creating HR frameworks that support compliance, consistency, and employee engagement • Evaluating and coordinating employee benefits programs that balance workforce needs with business objectives • Streamlining administrative and operational workflows across departments • Improving communication and collaboration between leadership, HR, recruiting, and operations teams • Implementing practical systems that reduce manual effort and increase productivity • Supporting leaders through periods of growth, change, and organizational transformation The result is a stronger foundation for sustainable growth: • Faster, more effective hiring • Improved employee experience and retention • Better workforce planning and organizational alignment • Enhanced benefits and people programs • Greater operational efficiency and accountability • Reduced administrative burden on leadership teams • Scalable systems that grow with the business What differentiates my approach is the ability to bridge strategy and execution. I don't simply identify opportunities for improvement—I work alongside leadership teams to implement solutions that are practical, adopted by employees, and sustainable over the long term. Whether an organization needs recruiting leadership, HR infrastructure, benefits support, operational process improvement, workforce planning, or strategic talent acquisition, I bring a hands-on, business-focused perspective grounded in more than 24 years of helping companies build stronger teams and stronger organizations. If you're looking to improve hiring, strengthen HR operations, enhance employee benefits, optimize business processes, or create the infrastructure necessary for long-term growth, I'd welcome the opportunity to connect.
