Greater Houston
I love storytelling and making connections; which is exactly why I pursued a degree in Communications. At one point, I had big plans to be the next Oprah Winfrey. But since Oprah is still going strong, I found my way into Talent Acquisition and I’ve never looked back. I'm a results-driven talent acquisition leader with a passion for strategic hiring, building high-performing teams, and creating exceptional experiences for candidates and hiring leaders. I specialize in executive hiring with a deep focus on diversity, inclusion, and belonging, ensuring we’re not just filling roles but shaping the future of leadership. Currently, I lead a global executive recruiting team, driving strategic initiatives and building a center of excellence at HP. My expertise lies in cross-functional collaboration, leadership development, and aligning talent strategies with business goals to fuel long-term success. I’ve also got a knack for taking 45 minutes just to say 'Good Morning'—what can I say, I’m from the South! You can usually spot me by my bold hoop earrings and my excitement about helping leaders rethink how they attract and hire the best talent. When I’m not pinching myself because I get to work in the ever-evolving tech space at HP, I’m busy connecting people to my favorite food, drinks, books, podcasts, stores—and, of course, taking shameless selfies at @doinglifewithnad on Instagram.
