Let me help you hire the best, retain the best and scale.
As someone who built the teams, people processes, systems and culture program foundations behind three exits, let me help you build your company the right way from the beginning. I am a world class recruiter that will provide you with unmatched talent sourcing so you can spend more time scaling your business, while I find the right people to surround you with. Once we have the right talent in place, I help set up your People & Talent function to scale as you reach the next stages.
Kelsey was nothing short of critical in the early years of BigCommerce. Her contributions to finding and keeping the best talent in the market, setting up thoughtful processes and championing culture made her a core driver of our success at scale. We couldn't have gone from idea to IPO without Kelsey. It's that simple.

How I work
I work as an extension of the team.
Exclusivity on every role and project
I work to deeply understand your business and tell the story as if it came from you. I look at projects and hires from a founder's point of view.
The whole cycle
Sourcing, screening, scheduling, interviewing, offer, onboarding. Wherever you need help, I give you the time back.
I'm not afraid to say no
I will be honest if I'm not the right fit for your business. I am best suited for leaders who want to iterate together and act in true partnership.
