At Microsoft, I own end-to-end delivery of onboarding and professional-skills training programs for the Customer Service & Support (CSS) organization. I coordinate planning, logistics, execution and follow-up for learners across EMEA, APAC and the Americas.

I build and maintain the processes that support consistent training sessions, partner with stakeholders to secure logistical requirements, and support learners and instructors when issues arise. I also report on post-event evaluations and training session consumption.

At G2 Travel, I led teams of up to 13 and worked across data support, client operations and reservations. My work included streamlining processes, negotiating supplier contracts, managing client relationships and maintaining profit and loss reports.
