Nearly all of my placements are on-site contract, contract-to-hire, or direct permanent employment. I work out of my office in Chicago but have clients in the NJ/NY area including Sony, PepsiCo and several Pharmaceutical companies. My circle of influence includes a large private network of recruiters as well as several professional associations and social networks.
My wife Pam and I are empty nester’s with two grown boys and two girls. (Our favorite conversation goes like “We aren’t doing anything this weekend are we? - Good”) Most recent academic pursuits include a return to Moody Bible Institute in preparation for a Master of Arts in Biblical Studies (MABS)
