Korie Dean

Title: Senior Director of Human Resources

Joined EWC Growth: 2026

I built my career from the ground up, starting as an HR Assistant and rising into executive leadership by consistently driving people strategy through high-growth environments, primarily within the retail and eCommerce space. I have led enterprise-wide HR functions spanning employee relations, compliance, engagement, and operations, playing a critical role in scaling organizations while strengthening their people infrastructure.

With over 19 years of experience across all facets of Human Resources, including leadership roles with Fashion Nova, BCBG Max Azria, and Mavely, I bring deep industry expertise and a proven track record of aligning people strategy with business performance.

I thrive at the intersection of strategy and execution, partnering closely with teams to navigate complex challenges, build scalable people operations, and elevate the employee experience. I am driven by the opportunity to create high-performing cultures rooted in accountability, growth, and trust, where both leaders and employees are empowered to deliver results.

My leadership philosophy is grounded in the belief that clarity is kindness and that people are not just assets, they are the strategy. I lead with this mindset to drive initiatives that strengthen organizational performance while building environments where both the business and its people can truly thrive.
