Vice President of Talent

I doubled the size of the company by implementing a structured approach to both sourcing and interviewing. Optimized and improved a poor employment brand (and a 2nd time after a rebrand), conducted interview training, and taught inexperienced founders how to sell. Built a recruiting function from scratch and led the search for functional leaders in Design, Eng and Marketing

Head of Talent

PARSABLE

Feb 2016 - Oct 2017 (1 year 9 months)

I scaled this series B saas start-up from 23 to over 70 employees in just over one year (having never used an agency once).

Senior Recruiter

Mixpanel

Sep 2013 - Jan 2016 (2 years 5 months)

Started as employee #27 (recruiter #2) and grew Mixpanel to 245 employees in two locations (SF & NYC) with a $865m series B valuation (funding led by a16z). I helped build and scale our recruiting team from 2 to 10, implement a new ATS (Greenhouse), and define a scalable structured interview process. As we grew I selected and implemented sourcing tools, improved and refined our employment brand, and developed a pipeline of self-sourced candidates (never once using an outside agency). I partnered directly with senior leadership to optimize everything recruiting related, and consistently met or exceeded aggressive hiring targets. Aside from the coveted experience scaling an "it" company, this role taught me the invaluable lesson of choosing f

Recruiter

Splunk

Jun 2012 - Sep 2013 (1 year 4 months)

I contributed to the doubling of Splunk from 500 to over 1,000 employees, hiring 64 people in one year. As part of a small recruiting team, I partnered closely with both Technical (CIO) and Business executive leadership (CRO) to execute aggressive hiring goals. Developed a scalable recruiting process and helped build (x3) the recruiting team to scale a rapidly growing business.

Recruiter/Talent Advisor

Mar 2012 - Jun 2012 (4 months)

Linkedin hired me to rapidly triage the hiring needs of a marketing team that was behind on their annual hiring plan. (Contract position via Workforce Logic)

Recruiter

Google

Nov 2010 - Nov 2011 (1 year 1 month)

This year of growth was part of Google's global scaling from 20k to 30k employees. I partnered and recruited for a wide range of sales and marketing teams. I found a way to win and met or exceeded my hiring target for all 4 quarters. I knew that having this company name on my resume would open doors and I was right. (Contract position through Adecco.)

Technical Recruiter

PRO Unlimited

Mar 2008 - Nov 2010 (2 years 9 months)

As a PrO Unlimited employee, I worked mostly onsite at Barclays Global Investors/BlackRock and a few other client sites. During my time at BGI/BlackRock our team managed the contract recruitment/vendor management through the acquisition of BGI by BlackRock and the disentanglement of BGI from Barclays. Professionally this was an important role for me that gave me insight into working in-house and combining HR consulting + recruiting at scale. In this role I figured out who I wanted to be when I grew up.

Technical Recruiter

ATTech

Apr 2007 - Mar 2008 (1 year)

My engineering placements created the first profit this branch had ever seen. I worked as the only recruiter in the branch for my first 6 months. The office closed a few months after I left as part of a consolidation after merging with AppleOne.

Technical Recruiter

Technisource

Nov 2004 - Mar 2007 (2 years 5 months)

This is where I cut my teeth in technical recruiting. Our customers were primarily mid size companies that few candidates were interested in before we recruited them for their openings. It was a great learning environment working alongside a team of senior recruiters. I was the SME on telecom recruiting and made several high margin profitable placements.

Recruiter

The Adecco Group

Jun 2000 - Sep 2001 (1 year 4 months)

Thanks for scrolling this far down! This was my first full time job ever and in recruiting no less. I worked my butt off and made just about every mistake possible. It was a trial by fire and I performed well. We won an award for being the most profitable branch in the company (in both GM% and GM$). I earned enough money with this job to pay my way through college and graduate practically debt free. I should have taken out loans and bought Apple or Amazon stock instead!
