Bio

I'm originally from the SF Bay Area. I went to Georgetown University in DC for undergrad where I played Women's Golf and studied Classics. After that I went to law school at Washington University in St. Louis where I became interested in employment law, prompting me to explore careers in HR & Talent. I wanted to get into tech so I pursued opportunities in recruiting, starting at a firm then going in house to Instacart, Snapchat, Facebook, and Uber between 2013-2019. I left to start Talentdrop!
