In my career I am most proud of…..helping individuals find new employment, and assisting clients with their staff augmentation requirements. It has always made me proud to be a catalyst within the talent acquisition life cycle, and to successfully make the appropriate match for both my candidates & clients.

The realization of….and the dramatic positive impact a “new job” offers someone, has always made me proud that I chose a career in the Recruiting industry 25 years ago.

My favorite quote is…
“None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an afterthought. Eat the delicious food. Walk in the sunshine. Jump in the ocean. Say the truth that you’re carrying in your heart like hidden treasure. Be silly. Be kind. Be weird. There’s no time for anything else.” – Christopher Walken
