Amy Larko Falanga,
Co-CEO & Co-Owner
Amy graduated from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University with a degree in Management, Marketing, and Psychology. After college, she gained valuable experience at a global consulting firm, where she honed her analytical, problem-solving, and client service expertise.
Despite exploring different career paths, Amy always knew she wanted to follow in the footsteps of her father, Russ Larko, the founder of The Larko Group. A few years after graduating, she officially joined TLG and quickly made her mark by managing the Temporary Division. Since then, she has worked across every sector of the business, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the staffing and recruiting industry from the ground up.
Amy’s true passion lies in being a career matchmaker—helping candidates find fulfilling roles while providing clients with top-tier talent solutions. Now, as Co-CEO & Co-Owner, she is honored to partner with Andrea Newman to build upon TLG’s legacy, expand service offerings, and uphold the firm’s signature white-glove approach to recruiting.
When Amy is not at the office, she enjoys spending time with her daughter Harlow, exploring local food spots with her husband, going on long walks with her dog, and trying different workout classes.
