Current status | Digging for Treasure "What do you want to be when you grow up?".A recruiter was not what I told my 3rd-grade teacher.I wanted to be an Athlete, a Unicorn, or an Assassin. My early professional experiences exposed me to the world of work from a different perspective and ignited my passion for empowering others. After years of working in HR & Payroll, I learned that I loved recruiting. Not necessarily clicking through thousands of resumes. but building relationships. It is exhilarating, challenging, and a way to make a difference in someone's life. I thrive in rapidly growing, innovative organizations. I am passionate about process improvements and providing the best recruiting experience for candidates and my hiring managers.After getting adopted into the Tovuti family, I knew it was on me, to continue to drive our values, promote our culture and adopt the perfect candidates to join the Tovuti family.
