Nominated For: The Career Catalyst Award

This award recognizes the team managers who are helping their organizations better engage Gen Z talent—while also developing the next generation of recruiting professionals. These nominees drive meaningful change on the ground through empathetic leadership, strategic program design, and a deep commitment to helping both candidates and recruiters grow. Their work is shaping more intentional, human-first early career experiences that resonate with today’s students.

From the Community: Why this Nominee Stands Out

To be considered for the CRCAs, individuals had to be nominated by a peer, manager, colleague, or direct report. This quote was shared by the person who nominated this person for recognition, highlighting the impact and excellence they’ve demonstrated.

“Justin plays a pivotal role in many conversations and is recognized as one of CLA's emerging leaders. His recruiting success is built on the genuine connections he fosters, not only with candidates but also within the firm itself. Throughout his journey, he has often highlighted the impact of mentorship and career coaching, which he credits as key influences in shaping his path. Driven by a desire to pay it forward, he is committed to cultivating the next generation of leaders, just as others once did for him.

As one of the leaders within our CelebrAsian affinity group, he has shared valuable insights with the team on effective strategies for recruiting top diverse talent to the firm. A passionate advocate for underrepresented communities, he consistently works to amplify the voices of his peers, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to be heard and valued.”
