NY Roots & FL Wings:
The engrained grind & southern hospitality combo
Amanda embarked on her journey in Talent Acquisition in NYC, initially navigating the corporate landscape before finding her groove on the vibrant agency side. Like many in the field, she stumbled upon recruitment and discovered a passion for assisting others in this dynamic and occasionally overwhelming industry.
Armed with a background in psychology and social work, Amanda found her calling. Establishing meaningful connections with both clients and candidates, she relished the opportunity to orchestrate life-changing introductions and deliver game-changing value for companies.
Hailing from a family of entrepreneurs, Amanda couldn't help but notice the gaps in services, the struggles of companies seeking outstanding partners, and the untapped potential in between. After several years as the COO of a boutique firm within the RPO sector, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic spurred Amanda to chart her own course, assemble the team of her dreams, and craft daily magic for her employees, candidates, and clients alike.
