Author, Recruiter, Mentor.
For the past two decades, I’ve been at the heart of Silicon Valley’s dynamic job market, running a premier search firm that partners with leading venture capitalists and groundbreaking companies to discover and secure exceptional talent. My journey has taken me through the corridors of industry giants like Google, Dolby, and Automation Anywhere, as well as the bustling offices of numerous innovative startups. From the very first Entry-Level Engineers to the visionary Chief Technology Officers, I’ve had the privilege of recruiting top-tier professionals across every level and function. I’ve navigated the complexities of talent acquisition to bring extraordinary individuals to some of the most exciting companies.
This experience has equipped me to pursue my passion of guiding students and young professionals through the often-treacherous job search maze. The current job market can feel like a labyrinth: applications go into a black hole, feedback is scarce, and the frustration mounts when an interview leads to silence. It’s a system that often leaves job seekers feeling lost and disheartened. Recognizing this challenge, I’ve dedicated countless hours to volunteering as a career coach, helping hundreds of individuals transform their job search experience.
I wrote The AI Driven Job Search Roadmap to help candidates cut through the confusion and inefficiency, offering practical strategies and insights that turn frustration into actionable steps. This workbook is a treasure trove of insights drawn from decades spent navigating both sides of the job search process.
