- Office Manager growing a new office from 0 employees to 45. Received Chairman's Individual for Outstanding Contribution as Lake Mary Office Manager. In only 5 months, created the most technically strong office with highest cases closed per engineer rate (5.6/day, average was 4.8 - +15.5%).

As the Global Leader, managed the development and delivery of all internal material to Support Engineers in Vancouver, London, Dallas, Sydney and Florida. Also established a global mentoring program that shortened a new engineer’s time to competency from 24 weeks to 17 saving thousands, increasing cases closed per day by 15.5% and increasing customer satisfaction metrics.
- What gets measured gets improved. Helped institute individual and team performance metrics beyond total cases closed to measure and quantify both successes and challenges.
- 14 years experience delivering Advanced Customer Service Skills . Anyone can manage easy customers; I train and mentor them so they work successfully with the difficult ones.
- Reduced customer demand on support services.
