Previously, Pieter has been responsible for high volume regional sales recruitment at ADP, as well as the national sales recruitment at Seamless! Outside of work, you might find Pieter hiking, sailing, or playing volleyball.  Pieter is very excited to be helping Stack Exchange grow its global sales teams!\n\n\u003Cstrong>\u003Ca href=\"/images/wordpress/Egan-Jim.jpg\">\u003Cimg src=\"http://stackoverflow.blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Egan-Jim.jpg\" alt=\"\" />\u003C/a>\u003C/strong>\n\n\u003Cstrong>Jim Egan, Sales Representative (Careers 2.0)\u003C/strong>\n\n\u003Cem>Denver****\u003C/em>\n\nOriginally from the south side of Chicago, Jim now feels the need to argue with people in bars that Chicago is the greatest city in the world. He's passionate about the Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks, and White Sox, so Jim couldn't imagine a better sports town. Leaving that behind and moving to the Rockies was tough but needed.  Armed with his trusty sidekick Loomis (pictured here, left), Jim plans to conquer the mountains and everything Denver has to offer. An avid crock-potter and terrible at accents, Jim hopes to fit in nicely.\n\n\u003Cstrong>\u003Cstrong>\u003C/strong>\u003Ca href=\"/images/wordpress/Frey-Paul.jpg\">\u003Cimg src=\"http://stackoverflow.blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Frey-Paul.jpg\" alt=\"\" />\u003C/a>Paul Frey, Account Executive (Careers 2.0)\u003C/strong>\n\n\u003Cem>London\u003C/em>\n\nPaul has lived in London since May 2010 and he loves it!  He was born and grew up in Cologne, Germany. Due to this fact he’s a big supporter of his local football club, FC Koeln. But he doesn’t just watch sports; he also loves to be very active, playing European handball up the third German division, and also squash and football. But his biggest passion is cooking and eating! His cooking style is experimental and cross culture…he never uses recipes, he just combines the things he knows and likes. Most of the time his cooking tastes good. ;-)\n\n\u003Cstrong>\u003Ca href=\"/images/wordpress/Jenkins-Todd.png\">\u003Cimg src=\"http://stackoverflow.blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Jenkins-Todd.png\" alt=\"\" />\u003C/a>Todd Jenkins, Sales Representative (Careers 2.0)\u003C/strong>\n\n\u003Cem>London\u003C/em>\n\nTodd originally hails from Boston (UK not US!) but now lives in London. He’s looking forward to transferring his sales skills to Stack Exchange! He really enjoys trying new foods and new restaurants, and he has a great love of the outdoors and adventurous walks. Apart from enjoying friends’ company in London's nightlife, he does try to keep very sporty, although he admits shamefully that his two favourite sports are the two he’s the worst at (tennis and swimming). Todd is also a huge fan of Liverpool Football Club!!\n\n\u003Ca href=\"/images/wordpress/Malhotra-Shikha.jpg\">\u003Cimg src=\"http://stackoverflow.blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Malhotra-Shikha.jpg\" alt=\"\" />\u003C/a>\n\n\u003Cstrong>Shikha Malhotra, Account Executive (Careers 2.0)\u003C/strong>\n\n\u003Cem>London\u003C/em>\n\nShikha grew up in Brussels / Belgium and has an Indian background.

He studied journalism and PR, and used to play handball (the best European sport ever!) quite seriously. He’s upgraded to playing football (the best international sport ever!), and can be found on London football pitches falling over, or screaming “Go Arsenal!” in support of the best football team in the world. You might see him on the road scooting cheerfully on his Vespa between angry Londoners stuck in traffic. He’s very excited about starting at Stack, as you can see here (CTAPT means START in Russian).\n\n\u003Ca href=\"http://stackoverflow.com/users/115049/rossipedia\">\u003Cimg src=\"http://stackoverflow.blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/jkqni.jpg\" alt=\"\" />\u003C/a>\n\n\u003Cstrong>Bryan Ross, Web Developer (Careers 2.0)\u003C/strong>\n\n\u003Cem>Denver\u003C/em>\n\nAn LA native, Bryan Ross (everybody just calls him \"Ross\") moved to Denver in 2010 after being chewed up and spit out by the rock music industry.
