Adam Finch

I'm known for being articulate, creative, and self-aware, with a relentless drive for improvement and innovation—all grounded in honesty, authenticity, and fun. After 19 years in San Francisco and 18 months in Bellevue and Seattle, I’ve returned to my roots in Salt Lake City, where I now blend meaningful work, entrepreneurship, creativity, and love. I share life with my partner and our five furry friends, and I run two successful rental businesses (#sidehustle): four Airbnbs and Hotwheels Car Rentals of Utah.

Whether in my personal life, gig-life, or professional work, I lead with a clear vision, integrity, emotional intelligence, and a passion for continuous learning and development. I value communication, adaptability, accountability, and strategic thinking—and I strive to create win-win outcomes in everything I do.

A lifelong learner and explorer, I’m a recruiter, entrepreneur, photographer, writer, and career coach who thrives on discovery—of people, ideas, and experiences. My love for photography began at age nine with a Kodak Disc Camera and has since evolved into a storytelling craft rooted in beauty, originality, and confidence.

Professionally, my journey began in healthcare following nursing school, where I managed a home care agency and led a 200-person clinical team. I later transitioned into recruiting, building a 15+ year career focused on technical, leadership, G&A, FP&A, sales, and C-Suite roles—especially within Cybersecurity and FinTech industries across San Francisco, Nashville, and Salt Lake City. I'm passionate about making recruiting more human, strategic, and enjoyable.

Today, I’ve temporarily stepped away from recruiting to pursue my love for teaching. As a Professor and Career Development Leader at Neumont College of Computer Science, I help future software engineers navigate the path to meaningful careers. I also lead the college’s internship program, currently supporting 112 students.

Outside of work, I’m a jazz lover, talk radio enthusiast, costume collector (50+ and counting), and former spin instructor. I’ve performed in musicals, write regularly, and enjoy an ongoing romance with coffee (but eat too much chocolate). I’m an old soul with a modern spirit—organized but unpredictable, grounded yet always curious.

Let’s connect—over tech, talent, creativity, new business ideas, or a great cup of coffee.
