Summary
Customer insights leader with 15+ years of experience transforming feedback into business outcomes. I specialize in uncovering the root cause of customer and operational friction, not just the surface-level symptoms. From re-imagining Voice of Customer strategy to aligning digital experience with enterprise KPIs, I bring a systems-thinking approach to customer intelligence — connecting cross-functional dots and turning insights into measurable results. Proven ability to influence executive priorities, modernize outdated feedback models, and guide org-wide transformation through data-driven decision-making.
