"About 80% of my work is in the finance world, and the most prestigious placement I have made is the CFO for a multi-billion dollar tech company. I learned so much about the tech world; it was mind-blowing. This particular search was on a retainer, and I had a highly targeted list containing the top CFO names in the industry. I experienced some significant and career changing conversations during that particular project."

"Just this year, I placed a heart surgeon with one of our state's most prominent children's hospitals. It felt amazing to learn all the ins and outs of her position, to help her land a job closer to her family, and one that offered work truer to her passion, which was helping children. I believe that particular job placement will be my favorite for many years to come."
