About Dave
Dave's Bio

I am a Senior Technical Staffing professional with over two decades of proven success in recruiting top talent for a wide range of clients. I have a deep understanding of IT roles and emerging technologies across software development, infrastructure, cloud, cybersecurity, AI/ML, and other platforms and services used to deliver technical solutions.

I live with purpose and value every relationship so I'm not simply matching keywords on a resume to a description. Changing jobs is a time of uncertainty, doubt, and fear for everyone. Each person I encounter gives me an opportunity to encourage and uplift someone experiencing the stress of a job search.

Recruiting Since
2000

Why I love to recruit
I love sharing ideas and strategies to help take their career to the next level. I get a great deal of personal satisfaction from listening to what you want and helping you uncover avenues that lead to those objectives. I’ve had the privilege of mentoring and counseling more people than I can count and there’s no better feeling than helping people pursue their dreams.

When I'm not working I like to
Watch KC Royals and Chicago Cubs baseball either live or streamed. Travel across the US. Listen to & play music. Brew beer. Referee high school basketball. Ride bikes (mostly a motorcycle or eBike these days).
