Summary
I’m a Talent Acquisition and Recruitment Marketing Specialist with experience driving brand storytelling, candidate experience, and data-driven hiring campaigns across enterprise environments. I bridge the gap between talent attraction and operational efficiency—partnering with HR, TA, and Marketing to deliver high-impact recruitment strategies that build trust and drive conversions. With a background in HR systems (Workday, iCIMS, UKG), event branding, and digital recruitment content, I create consistent, scalable messaging that reflects an organization’s culture while reaching the right talent, globally and locally.
