  • Critical Care Registered Nurse — cardio-thoracic and emergency ICU
  • Founded UX Recruiters (acquired)
  • Former talent and operations leader at Amazon, AWS, Facebook and Atlassian

David spent his nursing career in critical care — cardio-thoracic and emergency ICUs — where the quality of leadership shows up in every shift.

He went on to lead talent and operations teams at Amazon, AWS, Facebook and Atlassian, and founded UX Recruiters, a talent agency that was later acquired.

Practice Manager Recruiting brings those two backgrounds together: structured hiring tools written for dental, optometry and medical practices, and hands-on help — on-site or virtual — when a practice wants a partner running the search.
