Executive CX & Brand Leader specializing in wellness and hospitality growth

Asheville, NC26y exp

In industry, implemented OKRs and performance systems (Leapsome) and led change communications to improve executive productivity and cross-team accountability.”

“Operator/consultant who built and ran an executive coaching and business consulting practice working directly with founders and operators on decision-making, operational structure, and performance. Has tested multiple business concepts (consulting/productized services and a consumer product) without raising external capital, and is now intentionally transitioning from advising to full end-to-end ownership of a venture with a strong bias toward rapid validation and execution.”

“Recruiting leader who has managed a 10-person recruiting team and still stays hands-on with C-level executive searches. Brings a dual recruiting + HRBP perspective and has partnered directly with a CFO on strategic hiring decisions, including market insights and trade-offs. Led a recruiting lifecycle standardization initiative to improve candidate experience consistency and hiring efficiency.”
