Shawn’s Experience

With 15 years of experience in medical recruiting, Shawn has built her career around connecting the right people with the right opportunities. She takes a relationship-first approach, focusing on getting to know both her clinicians and clients so every placement feels like the right fit—not just a quick fill.

Shawn is known for her attention to detail, clear communication, and commitment to doing things the right way. She values quality over quantity and takes pride in creating thoughtful, well-aligned matches that set everyone up for success.

She genuinely enjoys building connections and being a reliable partner throughout the process. Whether you’re exploring new opportunities or looking to fill a critical role, she’s always ready to jump in and help.

Shawn's Fun Fact

Her hobbies tend to follow the seasons. In the spring and summer, she’s an avid golf fan—usually cheering on Scottie Scheffler (even if her own golf game hasn’t quite caught up to her lessons). In the fall, she shifts into full football mode, rooting for the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Cincinnati Bengals. She also combines her love of football and cooking by making a dish inspired by each team’s city every game week—picking up new recipes (and a few favorites) along the way.
