About

I work at the intersection of Customer Experience, Product Experience, and Data, helping teams understand where customers struggle, why friction occurs, and what can be improved across the end-to-end experience. With 9+ years across FinTech, e-commerce, and automotive, my experience spans Customer Insights, Journey Optimization, Experience Analytics, Process Excellence, and AI & Conversational CX. At PayPal, I use customer contact signals, product/funnel data, qualitative research, and experience analytics to uncover friction and translate insights into product, self-service and service improvements. My work includes Disputes, BNPL and PayPal Assistant, with a focus on contact reduction, containment, self-service and resolution effectiveness. I enjoy solving problems where customer behaviour, data, product experience and operational realities intersect—turning insights into practical improvements that make experiences easier for customers and more effective for businesses. Core areas: Customer & Product Experience | Customer Insights | Journey Optimization | Experience Analytics | AI & Conversational CX | Self-Service & Contact Deflection | Product Discovery | Process Excellence
