Customer Support & AI Operations Expert

I specialize in customer support operations: building the processes, KPIs, and knowledge systems that deliver measurable results. At Simply Contact, I led the Ditto Music project for nearly four years, and an AI knowledge management rollout under my leadership cut supervisor escalations in half and lifted CSAT by 8%. I now apply that experience at Lyft as a Program Manager.
