What I'm looking for
I am an operations manager with over 7 years of experience in leading cross-functional teams and optimizing workflows.

My leadership has resulted in a 5% improvement in site-wide quality scores and a 20% increase in team throughput.
Throughout my career, I have consistently achieved exceptional results, such as increasing agent throughput by 40% and reducing planned shrinkage by 37.5%.
