Her Story

Business, from A to Z.

She has run companies as a manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer, distributor, agent, buyer, marketer, stylist, fashion-show organizer, consultant, employer, mentor and CEO.

Rose began in children’s fashion, then built a career of more than 25 years across the fashion industry — women’s wear, children’s clothing, handbags, shoes, accessories, toys and apparel — following a product’s entire journey from concept, sourcing and manufacturing to marketing, distribution, wholesale, retail, fashion shows, styling and, finally, the customer. Along the way she crossed into automotive manufacturing and international B2B sales, advised small businesses in Toronto’s Financial District, and ultimately brought decades of fit-and-sizing experience into technology and robotics.

For Rose, entrepreneurship has never been only about selling products. Over more than 25 years she has hired, trained and worked alongside hundreds of employees — building teams, developing talent, mentoring founders and creating opportunities for others to move forward.

  3. Fashion shows, trade shows & corporate styling

  4. Automotive & international sales

    Served as Marketing Manager for International and Foreign Sales at United Spray Booths, working directly with Magna.

  5. Downtown Toronto showrooms

    Operated chains of showrooms in major downtown high-rises and Toronto’s leading hotels, partnering with property managers and a wide range of fashion brands.

    Business Consultant and Trustee supporting entrepreneurs and small businesses in Toronto’s Financial District.
