What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can take ownership of HR, operations, recruitment, or business development work in a structured, remote or hybrid environment. I value independent work, cross-team coordination, and opportunities to build efficient processes.

I'm building Sorelle from the ground up, overseeing design coordination, sourcing, supplier and factory relationships, merchandising, inventory, recruitment, training, reporting, and brand-aligned marketing. I also co-founded XFLAIR Clothing and previously founded Island Nation Clothing, managing a Sri Lankan clothing brand with a retail shop.

At EquityMatch, I progressed from Content Writer to Investor Relations Manager, leading a team of 10 and managing profiles, hiring support, team training, payroll invoices, bookkeeping, and reporting to the CEO. I've also supported remote operations at STAXO Group and built HR processes at Nadastra through recruitment, training, coaching, policies, and employee documentation.
