Career Highlight
"When reflecting on my decade+ in early career recruitment, my proudest moments are when I’ve supported the growth of an individual’s career. The pride I feel when looking out into an auditorium filled with diverse new hires is immeasurable. I think to myself: 'Every set of eyes peering at me is a mind and life that will grow because of the work of my team.' I’ve also grown several team members into new positions where they are now thriving.
