I’m the founder and managing partner of Sandymount Search, a boutique executive search firm headquartered in Portland, OR, working internationally to help companies build world-class teams. With a background in executive search and a career spanning New York, London, and now the West Coast, I’ve built a reputation as a trusted advisor, connector, and recruiter. I use my extensive professional experience and education in psychology to create a data-driven, competence-based approach to talent acquisition.I specialize in recruiting for roles at the forefront of advanced technologies—AI/ML, senior management, marketing, legal, and digital functions—across industries like consumer products, tech, finance, and renewable energy. Having worked at some of the world’s most admired companies, as well as being a former founder myself, I understand firsthand what makes a successful candidate and what it takes to build a team that can drive real impact.My passion lies in helping companies accelerate growth by identifying highly competent, culturally adept leaders who can navigate today’s evolving business landscape. I take a creative approach to finding talent, looking beyond traditional industry boundaries to uncover the people who will drive brand value and innovation. I’m also deeply committed to building diverse teams and hold a Certified Diversity Recruiter designation from ADP.Before executive search, my career was rooted in marketing, communications, brand development and B2B tech. My first job was on The Internet Daily Bulletin, with an award-winning tech publisher in London, then I moved to New York to work at Fortune magazine (Time Inc.), followed by a role as head of marketing at luxury publisher Assouline (acquired by LVMH). Later, I joined L’Oréal-owned Kiehl’s as VP of Global Communications, leading brand storytelling on a global scale. In 2009, I co-founded Omhu, a design-driven company that reimagined products for the Silver Generation—our first product is now in the Smithsonian Collection.I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and bring an innate curiosity to every search. Whether advising executives on career moves or helping businesses find transformational talent, I love making the right connections that move companies—and people—forward. Reach out to me at Susan@sandymountsearch.com for an introductory conversation.

My name is Steven Lowell, a Reverse Recruiter and Career Coach with Find My Profession. I am in my 50's, happily married, deal with Epilepsy, and managed to find jobs in 6 industries across 4 continents, as well as traveled the United States by bus to learn more about the people in the United States. I have been on this search to discover why I exist and the true meaning of success. I am a student of life. I know more than meets the eye. I am that guy in New York City, who always gets stopped by tourists to ask for directions, but you can also drop me in any country in the world and I will look like a local. I always help others. I was born and raised a NYC-native. I love people, diversity, honesty, loyalty, and learning. I am in an interracial marriage to my wife, Wendy, since 2007. And know everything about traveling, pizza, all things technology, writing, blogging, talent sourcing, resume writing, job searching, job boards, community management, customer service, hockey, golf, teaching, and talking to people from around the world. I am not your typical, rule-following person. My career has involved thinking outside the box, traveling, getting startups off the ground, and never turning down a really good challenge.
