Bio
Scott Winslow
I was Rosemary's design director at Human Condition Global. She came into a very scattered creative/media department and immediately brought order and added much needed sophistication and focus to our team. Together we produced a multitude of investor-facing materials from pitch decks to video and motion-graphic/animated product demos which directly resulted in over $20M dollars in direct investment from Fortune 500 companies. Rosemary is a true professional in every regard. She is able to operate at 30,000 feet defining strategy and also come down to the ground, roll up her sleeves and show us how to get things done. Her depth of knowledge and experience allows her to immediately cut through the chatter, make decisions and direct execution of our projects quickly and on tight budgets. She always has a smile on her face even in the most trying of circumstances - a pleasure to work with at all times. I personally learned a great deal from her and can recommend her without reservation to any organization lucky enough to have her. Regards, Scott Winslow

In the time I’ve worked with Rosemary, I’ve watched on in awe as she has driven multidisciplinary teams to outstanding results against impossible deadlines, time and again. One of the things that impresses me most about Rosemary is that In spite of her enviable stack of career wins, she approaches each new project with curiosity and verve. She has a glow of intelligence and grace under fire that command the respect of all around her. She constantly strives to make herself, her team and her product better. And inspires others to do the same.
