I have been in technical staffing since 2020, joining Protingent in 2024. I specialize in Aerospace and Emerging Technology.
My work is about connecting talented individuals with exciting job opportunities that match their skills and ignite their enthusiasm. What makes me different? I believe in a personal approach. I take the time to get to know the people I work with, understanding their goals and what they seek in their next role. Every job match is about meeting requirements and fulfilling career aspirations.
Looking beyond immediate needs to hire candidates who show potential for growth and advancement within the company while ensuring a positive experience for candidates throughout the recruiting process to attract top talent and maintain a good reputation. I love recruiting because it allows me to impact people’s lives positively.
I want candidates to know three things about myself: Firstly, I'm deeply passionate about fostering a culture of empathy and collaboration. In my career, I have found immense fulfillment in understanding others' perspectives and supporting team members through challenges. Beyond work, I cherish spending time outdoors, hiking in the mountains, or kayaking on a peaceful lake. Nature fuels my creativity and provides a grounding balance to my professional life. Additionally, I strongly believe in the importance of routines for maintaining productivity and well-being. Establishing daily habits helps me stay organized and focused, whether diving into a complex project or enjoying downtime with family and friends.
