I first started my career as a Healthcare Credentialing Specialist in 2013 for nurses at a Medical Staffing Agency. I like the day to day challenges that come with working in the credentialing field because it makes your days interesting and every day is different!
I graduated in 2011 with my BA in Criminal Justice. I think my degree played a huge part in why I love credentialing because it is very analytical and challenges me each day. I joined the TheraEx team as the Clinical Compliance Manager in 2016 for the Nursing Division. Here at TheraEx, my goal is to provide our clients with the best clinicians possible in the timeliest manner.
I was born into a family of nurses in Eastern Europe and grew up hearing the craziest patient stories & hospital conditions of the late 90s. Naturally so I found my calling in recruiting during the worst days of the pandemic in 2020. As chaotic as that time was for all of us working in healthcare, this was a match made in heaven for me. I have a Marketing degree and a good understanding of its principles, allowing me to better help my team of clinicians reach their goals and continue our family tradition in some way. I’m aware of all the troubles of working on the floor, hence the least I can do is work my hardest to get you where you want to be. God knows I’d not be able to pass an Arrhythmia test.
When I’m not by my laptop working, I’m either looking up recipes from different cuisines or working out. I love to travel and was fortunate enough to live in France, Australia, and a few different regions in the U.S. before settling down in the beautiful Midwest. I’ve been residing in Minneapolis, MN for the past 7 years and yet continue to question this decision every winter. I LOVE meeting folks and exchanging stories, I’m sure we’ll have plenty to talk about!!

My name is John and I have been connecting people with their next great opportunity since 2019. I graduated from Cal State University San Bernardino in 2019 and I truly had no idea which direction I wanted to go in with my Bachelors in Sociology. However, one thing I did know, is I wanted to make a difference in people’s lives, but I just didn’t know how. Then I accidentally applied for a healthcare recruiter position, and it has been Valhalla ever since. Not only do I make a difference in the lives of the patients that our nurses work with, but the nurses that I have the pleasure of serving as well. Having the opportunity to walk hand in hand with a medical professional through their career path has been the most rewarding experience I could have hoped for.
