I'm an alumnus of Purdue University who is extremely passionate about engineering, communication, the automotive industry, and more! I started my recruiting journey back in the fall of 2020 and have gained a ton of understanding of various engineering markets throughout the nation. I've worked in a boutique recruiting firm and at the largest in the nation. Now I've settled into my career at Bartech Staffing and am eager to connect engineers to their dream jobs in the automotive industry in Detroit and across America.

I am a passionate and hardworking individual who loves helping people and creating a positive difference in their life. I am a Mechanical Engineer but I left Engineering after working two years at a big multinational engineering company because I didn't enjoy sitting in front of computer and designing machines. I have always been an extrovert and I love making conversations with people.
