Operations Leader with expertise in Trust & Safety programs.
What I'm looking for
I am an Operations Leader with over 6 years of experience in scaling TikTok’s Trust & Safety programs. My journey has taken me from hands-on moderation to directing teams of over 75 agents across EMEA. I have recently focused on strategic industry research and operational upskilling, especially following sector-wide restructuring. My expertise lies in governance frameworks, workflow optimization, and cross-functional leadership, where I have successfully delivered a 36% increase in SLA compliance and a 15% reduction in errors through data-driven process improvements.
Throughout my career, I have cultivated a high-performance, inclusive culture that has significantly increased employee engagement scores. I have managed and coached operational leads, resulting in a top 5 regional ranking across multiple quality and efficiency metrics. My role as the primary liaison between Trust & Safety leadership and cross-functional teams has allowed me to ensure proactive communication of risks and strategic updates, ultimately building resilient, user-centric safety operations.
