Founder at Coterie | Hampton | Ex: Chief, ClassPass, Goldman Sachs

At Rosedale AI, I apply my talent, leadership, and coaching expertise to help scale AI-powered businesses. Rosedale AI is a RevOps Growth Partner that designs and implements white-labeled AI tools to save teams 20+ hours per week, boost revenue, and enhance retention, all while reducing manual overhead. I guide clients through a three-step process—audit & strategy, development & testing, and launch & maintain—delivering real AI solutions that scale.

Before joining Rosedale AI, I founded Coterie, an executive and engineering talent agency rooted in the belief that the foundation of every successful company is its people. Prior to that, I led talent functions at high-growth organizations: I was Head of Global Talent Acquisition at Trust Machines (a $150M Series A company) and Head of Talent Acquisition at Chief (🦄). Over more than a decade, I’ve built teams for multi-billion-dollar companies including Goldman Sachs, ClassPass, and others.
