Professionally, I find it fulfilling to help build exciting companies and communities.  When I’m not “working,” I write music, sing, keep fit, and travel as much as I can.

Within hours of applying for an open position, I heard back to schedule an interview two days later. It is so uncommon to have a positive and speedy experience like I had. They are so personable and extremely knowledgeable about the market. I felt heard, he asked the right questions to understand my skillset and what I want as a candidate, and was willing to go above and beyond to connect me to a role through his personal relationships. He is a true professional who is passionate about helping his clients find the right career opportunities. His expertise, dedication, and commitment to excellence are truly exceptional, and I am confident that anyone who works with him will have an outstanding experience. I highly recommend working with The Talent Mine!
