Carrie Nelson – IT Search Executive

A little about me…
Hi, I’m Carrie. As a team member at Ashley Ellis, I’m very passionate and goal-oriented, with you in mind. I truly care about people and always look forward to helping the next person achieve their goals. Whether you’re a business seeking the right candidate or an individual looking to find the perfect job, I will help you find the right placement to ensure a long-term, successful future.
It’s an amazing feeling when I hear the excitement in someone’s voice after I’ve helped them find the job of their dreams. I am lucky and grateful to be a part of the Ashley Ellis team, because we have a great group of people here, and unlike many other firms, we work together, not against each other. Out of the office, my hobbies are fishing, traveling, meeting new people, laughing and spending quality time with my boyfriend Don, his daughters, and our dog Sadie Bean.
