Life & Career Milestones

My path in life has been direct

  • 1.

    I earned my bachelor’s degree in operations and supply chain management from Indiana State University.

  • 2.

    I started a food truck with a friend in college.

  • 3.

    We eventually decided to close down the food truck business because it was just too cold to run successfully during the Indiana winters.

  • 4.

    I started working multiple side hustles, one of which was running a territory for senior care.

  • 5.

    Part of managing that territory meant hiring caregivers—the hiring process felt more like a hamster wheel than I’d like, so I sought out to improve the process.

  • 6.

    My brother was experiencing similar challenges with hiring in his work, so we partnered together and founded Qualifi, a virtual hiring platform that helps to streamline the recruitment process.
