AI Edge
Smarter tools. Bigger possibility.
I use AI as an operator — to move faster, think wider and ship smarter. Not a buzzword on a résumé; a daily practice.
Workflow automation
I use my own brand, Crystal Rose Collections, as a sandbox to pressure-test AI-assisted content and ops workflows.
Formally trained
Generative AI (IBM) + three Davidson College certificates in AI for marketing strategy, optimization & creativity.
Kind words
What it's like to work with me.
“Char-Leen helps keep us on track. There is no other way to say it. She has been an incredible addition to our team, organizing our systems, helping us manage deadlines and approvals and keeping us moving forward. With so many projects going on, it's easy to lose sight of who is doing what and at what time. Char helps us by staying on top of everything and helping us avoid trouble down the road by things slipping through the cracks. I really admire and appreciate her ability to herd all of us cats along the way.”
“Char-Leen is amazing! She's always ready to help and she just plain gets it. Without her our last few projects would've fallen apart. We're going to try to hold on to her as long as we can.”
“Char is so organized, thorough and thoughtful. Her positivity and overall demeanor makes partnering so easy.”
Let's Connect
Let's grow something great together.
If you're hiring someone who turns chaos into a system that ships, I'd love to talk.
