David is a trusted and reliable partner. I’ve worked with him for nearly a decade and he’s always been able to deliver for me and my clients.

David led the recruiting effort, his energy and drive set him apart. But it was his honesty and candor that I actually valued the most. With David, I was able to have candid conversations and he provided an enormous amount of value while I was in the consideration and decisioning process.

David is one of the best executive recruiters in the business. I’ve worked with him as both a candidate and an employer, and he’s excellent in both roles.

As an agency professional, transitioning to in-house/client-side can be a daunting challenge. David helped me transition my career from a PR agency to managing digital and social media marketing at ASICS America. Not only was he my “in” to the company and position before it was publicly posted, he also stayed in constant touch to update me with any news and was always available to chat on the phone before or after an interview to make sure I was doing everything in my power to position myself in the best possible way.
