I work exclusively with grassroots power-building organizations — unions, worker centers, community orgs, non-profits, coalitions because I believe strong movement infrastructure starts with getting the right people in the room and treating them with dignity and respect.
I bring nearly a decade of organizing experience and almost five years of recruiting to every engagement, so you never have to explain what an organizing conversation is, or why culture fit means something different here.
Recruiting Services
I've done this long enough to know who you're looking for and how to find them.
My client partners enjoy working with me because I step in when and where needed, allowing your staff to focus on what matters while helping you meet your goals.
I write or rewrite your JD from scratch, framing the role honestly for movement candidates without underselling the work or the org.
I help you build a hiring process that's fair to candidates and sustainable for your team because a slow or chaotic process loses good people.
I pull from my resume bank of 700+ active movement job seekers and post to my jobs bulletin with 1,500+ subscribers — so we're not starting from scratch.
I read every resume and do initial screens myself. I know what to look for in an organizing candidate — you won't have to explain it to me.
I write the interview questions, schedule the calls, and can run practice interviews myself. You show up for the conversations that matter.
I handle reference calls so you don't have to chase them down. I know what questions actually tell you something about a candidate.
I help you think through the offer and communicate it clearly to candidates, so you don't lose good people at the finish line.

I've hired Alina again and again for multiple campaigns. In each one, she integrated seamlessly with the team, learned exceptionally quickly, and threw down with us. She is an excellent organizer who would be a huge asset to any team she's on.
Alina was crucial to our Executive Director search. She was a strategic partner who helped think through every stage of our hiring process, and truly understood what we were looking for in a period of growth for our organization. Alina is thoughtful, intentional, and extremely communicative; we felt confident and supported every step of the way.
Alina is a dynamic recruiter with a deep understanding of movement ecosystems, employer needs, and the broader nonprofit job market, especially within mission-driven institutions. As a small team, her ability to organize and guide us through the hiring process transformed what felt like an overwhelming goal into something manageable. Her grounding in movement values also helped us connect with candidates who were genuinely aligned with our work. I have deep gratitude for her skill, insight, and expertise.
