I\'m a seasoned expert in identifying top IT leadership talent, partnering with clients across a broad spectrum of industries, from startups and private equity firms to Fortune 500 companies.Before joining CIO Partners, I held pivotal roles such as Director of Recruiting at Applied Resource Group and Principal Technical Recruiter. At SOLTECH, I played a crucial role in building software development teams that spanned the full spectrum of tech stacks, catering to the diverse needs of both local and global clients. At JDC, I specialized in IT Workforce and SAP consulting projects for high-profile organizations, including Bridgestone, Delta, and Coca-Cola. My experience also extends to federal projects, where I successfully built teams for the Naval Sea Systems Command. My background in software development has sharpened my ability to recruit complex, specialized teams for organizations with unique needs.My dedication to community service is reflected in his volunteer work with the Atlanta Community Food Bank, the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG), and Friends of Georgia State Parks. My unique blend of technical expertise, leadership experience, and commitment to community service make me a valuable asset to any organization.
