Tell us about yourself

I say recruiting finds you, no one sets out to be a recruiter, and recruiting found me at just the right time. It found me in my early 20's when I was working on my MBA, and I've loved it ever since. I enjoy helping people find a job they love, and it brings me an equal amount of joy to see my clients grow their teams with the right people. My clients, my team, and my family motivate me to keep moving forward each day.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My business partner and I have an amazing team in place; within a year, we've grown from 2 to 11 people and hope to double that before the end of 2023.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

You're responsible for everything, the good, the bad, the ugly; if something goes wrong, there's no one to point the finger at but yourself.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

Find a great business partner!! Entrepreneurship can be lonely, but a partner can help sustain your business for the long haul. Laugh a lot; bad stuff will happen; surround yourself with people who have attributes you don't and who you enjoy working with daily.

Where can people find you and your business?
