Sharon Bondurant, founder and CEO, Tech Finders

Bondurant started the tech recruiting firm from her spare bedroom 18 years ago and has built it into a $4 million+ firm that finds exceptional talent for Arizona companies.

Surprising fact: “I was really shy and insecure growing up. My biggest regret: being too scared to try out for seventh-grade cheer. To overcome my regret, I started lifting weights at age 40, competed and won my first fitness competition at 41, and reached IFBB Pro status last July by winning a national show (at 45). My mantra is ‘Age is just a number and it is never too late.”
