## Headline

30u30 Young HR Leader \| Team, Culture, and AI Enabler @ Rocketium🚀

## About

I work at the intersection of people, product, processes, and operations\. As a member of Founder's Office at Rocketium, I sit close to where decisions get made\. My work spans people strategy, internal tooling, hiring systems, and the kind of organisational plumbing that rarely gets a LinkedIn post but keeps things moving\. I joined as Rocketium's first people hire and have had the privilege of building a lot from zero: culture practices, hiring pipelines, recognition systems, performance frameworks, and more recently, AI\-powered tools that make these workflows faster and less manual\. That last part has become a meaningful thread in my work\. Before Rocketium, I built Employer Branding as a function at Metamorph \(a talent unit incubated by Blume Ventures\), working across Blume's portfolio startups as a one\-person team\. Before that, I was in recruitment and employer branding at SDG Corporation, a US\-headquartered cybersecurity firm\.
