A lifelong "connector", she loves bringing together deserving talent and fantastic opportunities.The importance of personal relationships, the power of networking, and career coaching are just a few of her favorites. The majority of Ilana’s clients are creative marketing and advertising agencies across the Chicago-land area, so the importance of a rock star portfolio and presentation are always top of mind.
Aside from her day job of recruitment, she takes her passion for people and connecting as the President of the University of Michigan Club of Greater Chicago (Go Blue!)
Originally from San Francisco, this California girl loves the Midwest and opportunities and everything Chicago has to offer. Always open for a conversation on the latest and greatest vegetarian food spot, anything college football related, or need someone to send pictures of your puppy to.
