I love business building, from my first job building a search practice on Wall Street, to launching my first agency in 2009 to scaling and leading GTM teams at technology businesses like Hired.com, harri.com and porch.com.
I founded Beacon in 2019 not to create another recruitment agency, but as a vehicle to partner and build with ambitious founders and leaders.
Visionary leaders need builders who share their passion, care about their long-term success and are as invested in their business as they are.
Building and partnership are core to who we are and what we do. Exceptionalism, pride, craftsmanship, expertise, dedication – these are the traits we instill in our team, expect from our partners and seek on their behalf in the talent market.

Why work with us
We partner with VC/PE backed businesses operating in industries spanning; Saas Software, B2B Services, Consumer Software, Healthcare, and Fintech.
Within these industries, our specializations are 70% Go-to Market (GTM) and 30% Engineering, Product & Design (EPD).
Our partners bring us in when they have a critical leadership hire where they can’t afford to miss and when they are executing a scale-up and need a dedicated partner who can accelerate growth.
In both cases, we follow the same, simple process;
- Aim — Agree on the business goal and turn it into a clear scorecard.
- Find — Map the market and ask our network.
- Reach — Targeted outreach written by operators, not bots.
- Prove — Structured interviews and references tied to the scorecard.
- Decide — We help you compare, pick, and design the right offer.
- Onboard — 90‑day plan and manager coaching so the hire sticks.
