What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven CRM and digital operations leader with over 11 years' experience in account management, e-commerce operations, and process optimization. I specialize in service onboarding, RFP preparation, financial accountability, and aligning digital strategies with business objectives.
Throughout my career I have led cross-functional teams, scaled operations, and launched new services that secured client acquisitions — including CRO and AI-based content services and an expanded PIM operation with 175% growth. I focus on improving team utilization, implementing SOPs, and delivering measurable efficiency gains.
I bring hands-on experience in digital delivery, campaign analytics, CRM automation (Eloqua, Salesforce), marketplace and inventory management, and stakeholder engagement. I am committed to driving operational excellence and strategic resource allocation to support sustainable business growth.
