Hello! I am Virgginnia. I’m a Bay Area-based talent acquisition professional with a passion for consulting with companies to build incredible teams and operational strategies with a DEI lens. I specialize in tech recruiting (Engineering, Product, Design, Data), and have built solid sales teams in various startups. My journey as a DEI and Talent Acquisition professional has given me a well-rounded background in acquiring diverse and inclusive talent across many industries including tech startups, non-profits, government contracting, and international organizations. So, not only do I understand the intricacies of a wide breadth of position requirements, but I am also extremely committed to building and improving the processes that help find companies the right talent when they need it by understanding their individual needs. One could say that consulting and strategizing with different companies is what gets me up in the morning. I truly believe very day brings an opportunity to improve, support, and build community in the workplace—in English, Spanish, and conversational Italian and German, I might add. So, how can I help your company grow and thrive? Schedule some time with me to learn more about partnering with me as your next talent and diversity strategist.
