RECOMMENDATIONS & REVIEWS

Brian O'Connor

Executive VICE PRESIDENT @ Populi, Inc.

(Formerly EVP at Universal Mind)

Kristen is unique combination of sneaky brilliance, humble intelligence, high energy and pure determination. Her ability to dissect and consume a complex set of resource requirements and translate them perfectly to highly skilled technology resources, while simultaneously evaluating the same resources on those same principles is simply amazing. Kristen is fun to work with, a great culture fit for any corporation, and in a very refreshing manner brings solutions, options and strategies to the table, rather than excuses. She can take the most complex requirements and provide a thorough resource assessment with unwavering accuracy. Kristen improved our hiring conversion rates by 60%. I have never witnessed anything close to this crazy magic in my 20 years of consulting. I would recommend Kristen for any role that presents a demanding challenge and that allows her to be creative. Simply put, Kristen is a rockstar!!

I had the privilege of closely partnering with Kristen on several crucial and niche roles, with a specific focus on recruiting for Staff and Architecture level positions. One of Kristen's greatest strengths lies in her extensive knowledge and understanding of the technical landscape. She possesses the remarkable ability to quickly decipher and translate hiring manager requirements, consistently showing up and adapting to shifting priorities. She demonstrated a genuine respect for the sourcing process and the efforts put forth—a sourcer's dream partner!

Kristen and I had the pleasure of working together to build an entirely new line of revenue. I could always depend on her to be honest and transparent about what our approach should be. Her leadership skills are second to none and she handled essentially 3 jobs at once without missing a beat. She lead by example not by barking orders or asking to do what she wouldn't take on herself. When you think of what makes a great leader it should be someone who is willing to jump in the trenches and take on the impossible, which describes Kristen perfectly. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her and I know that she is destined for amazing things!
