Here's the full version with international experience woven in naturally — keeping it conversational rather than making it feel like a checklist:

I'm a passionate people and talent strategist with deep experience leading HR and recruiting efforts across multiple high-growth startups - from early-stage scrappiness to scaled, global organizations. What drives me is the chance to shape a company through its people: building culture, finding great talent, and creating the kind of environment where teams can actually do their best work. The startup world has always felt like home, and after all these years, I still love the energy that comes with it.

Early in my career, I was fortunate to be part of the team at Dropcam. I joined as one of the first employees and helped build something really special - the culture, the product and a team full of some of the best people I've worked with. Dropcam's acquisition by Nest (a Google company) was a testament to the power of building a great product with a strong, aligned team.

I also put in time at an agency called The Sourcery where I was able to deep dive into the sourcing side of things and really hone my candidate search and engagement skills. Here, I had the opportunity to help build and shape some amazing teams including those at GoPro, Scribd, StitchFix, Course Hero and Pantheon. I also spent considerable time bringing on new generations of recruiting professionals and building out training programs for them. Being able to work so closely with other recruiters and help guide their journeys was the most rewarding part of my experience there.

From there I joined Gild, a data science-powered recruiting platform, where I got to lead people strategy at a company whose product I could actually relate to. It was also my first real taste of working across borders - growing and supporting our team in Italy. Gild was acquired by Citadel and although I was offered to stay, I wasn't ready to give up startup life.

After a brief stretch leading talent at Dealpath, an enterprise SaaS platform built for commercial real estate, I rejoined former Gild teammates at OverOps, an enterprise code reliability platform, leading HR and recruiting. A big part of that role was bridging the gap between our US headquarters and our engineering team in Israel - something that deepened my appreciation for what it takes to build cohesive culture across time zones and geographies.

I spent the next six years at Sourcescrub, a PE-backed startup where I built the People function from the ground up and grew it into a global team supporting 700+ employees across six countries - including teams in the UK, Ukraine, Mexico and the Philippines. In 2026, Sourcescrub was acquired by Datasite - a great outcome and a good close to a chapter I'm really proud of.

I’m now at Head of People + Talent at Stellic, bringing everything I've learned building people functions at high-growth startups - and across continents - to a new mission.
