Stephanie A.R. Shirit

Chief Executive Officer

Hailing from a proud military family, Stephanie A.R. Shirit was born on Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan, and grew up on military installations throughout Europe and the United States. Her upbringing as the daughter of a U.S. Air Force Colonel (Ret.) cultivated her development of strong character traits, including integrity, commitment, and a tireless work ethic. Those traits have served her well throughout her more than 20 years of combined human resource, training, executive/professional recruiting, and marketing and sales experience, and they have charted her and her organization’s success in serving government entities across the United States.

​A graduate of the University of Nevada at Las Vegas, she actively supports her alma mater as a member of UNLV’s Alumni Circle and she mentors UNLV undergraduates through internship and community placement opportunities. She also works with non-profit organizations in her personal time to build self-esteem in others, and help engrain customer service skills and professionalism in the workplace. Ms. Shirit’s areas of expertise include: building and maintaining relationships with key executives and decision-makers around the country, developing training programs, and assisting in all aspects of hiring. She plays an integral role in the sourcing, recruiting, and candidate review process, and manages the follow-up phase as the prospective candidate becomes an employee with the client.  Additionally, she works closely with clients to help implement hiring and training strategies for growth.
