I build resilient operations, dashboards, and remote teams that achieve measurable SLA performance.
What I'm looking for
At Keywords Studios, I lead a 17-member remote player support team, maintaining 100% SLA and KPI compliance across high-volume gaming projects. I build Looker Studio and Google Sheets dashboards that improved Transactions Per Hour and quality metrics by 20%.
I bring 15+ years spanning operations leadership, technical coordination, training, and architecture. I use predictive lead metrics, NotebookLM knowledge synthesis, root-cause analysis, and cross-functional war room leadership to reduce performance gaps, resolve technical anomalies, and keep complex projects running.
Before Keywords Studios, I led teams at TELUS International, where I was named 2019 Team Leader of the Year and coached direct reports into leadership roles. My construction background in the UAE strengthened my approach to documentation, vendor liaison, technical submittals, and accountable execution.
