About

Strategic Talent Acquisition Leader with 8+ years scaling teams across Global Capability Centers (GCCs), Tier-1 product engineering firms, and high-growth startups. I've led full-cycle and GTM recruiting for Tech Giants — closing roles across AI/ML, GenAI, MLOps, Data Engineering, Cloud, and Mobile (Android/iOS) engineering, alongside Sales and GTM and Leadership hiring.

My approach blends AI-powered and GenAI sourcing, Boolean/X-Ray search, and talent intelligence with a strong focus on candidate experience, employer branding, and DEI&B. I'm equally comfortable advising C-suite stakeholders on workforce planning as I am running high-volume sourcing campaigns myself.

Before TA, I founded and ran a cloud kitchen business for 7 years — full P&L ownership, vendor negotiation, and team management from day one. That entrepreneurial lens shapes how I approach recruiting: as a business function, not just a pipeline to fill.

Open to conversations on GCC scale-up, technical recruiting, and TA leadership roles.
