About

Recruiting, for me, has always been about understanding people and business at the same time. Over 7+ years as a Senior IT Recruiter, I’ve led full-cycle searches across the US, LATAM, and Europe — working for B2B tech companies in staff augmentation, nearshore consulting, AI, and product development. That means recruiting not just for technical fit, but for client fit: candidates who can work directly with US-based stakeholders, navigate cross-cultural dynamics, and deliver in fast-paced, high-accountability environments. The roles I’ve covered span Backend, Frontend, DevOps, Mobile, QA, Salesforce, PM and UX — across Tech, Healthcare, and Oil & Gas — managing 5 to 10 open positions simultaneously in high-volume settings. My background in Psychology shapes how I approach every search: understanding what drives a candidate beyond their resume, reading what a team actually needs beyond the job description, and building the kind of trust with hiring managers that makes the whole process run better. More recently, I’ve expanded into client-facing work — staying closely connected to active searches, identifying pipeline blockers, and collaborating on process improvements. That experience has sharpened my ability to connect recruiting strategy with business outcomes. Core strengths: → Full-cycle IT recruitment at scale → Stakeholder & hiring manager partnership → Process documentation & team enablement → ATS: Greenhouse, Manatal, Lever. The through line across every role I’ve held: making the process better for everyone in it — candidates, hiring managers, and the business. That’s what I optimise for, and it’s what I bring to every team I work with.
