Jeremy’s story is straight out of the “bet on yourself” playbook. From growing up in tough circumstances to building a $14M powerhouse with Encore Search Partners, he’s turned every obstacle into fuel for growth. We get into how he built his executive search firm from scratch, the marketing smarts that gave him an edge, and the leadership lessons that helped him scale through downturns and even COVID. Beyond business, Jeremy opens up about his engagement, family, and his surprisingly serious pickleball game. It’s a raw, inspiring look at grit, growth, and the kind of mindset it takes to turn zero into $14 million.
