About


Since 2000 I have been successful in finding top talent across Russia, Europe, the UK, the USA, and Asia — more than 350 top placements delivered with precision, care, and a deeply human lens.

My work sits at the intersection of business strategy and human behavior. I bring both rigour and intuition to every search — the kind of wide view that comes from genuine curiosity about the world, culture, and the people who shape organisations.
