What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned Customer Success Director with a robust background in driving impactful customer-centric programs across various technology sectors. My recent role as Vice President of Customer Experience at a Generative AI startup allowed me to build comprehensive customer experience programs from the ground up, successfully recruiting 40 pilot customers within just five months. I thrive on exceeding performance metrics and boosting revenue growth by delivering exceptional customer experiences.
Previously, I led the strategy and execution of global customer experience at Miovision, an AI traffic optimization company, where I achieved remarkable results, including a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 67 and customer satisfaction ratings as high as 95%. My leadership has consistently resulted in improved customer retention and satisfaction, with a focus on operational excellence and team development. I am passionate about fostering lasting client relationships and elevating organizational success through cross-functional collaboration.
