I lead customer-facing teams, coach people toward work they're proud of, and follow my curiosity because you never know what information will be useful.

What I'm about

Every metric is a person having a day.

A decade leading loyalty and contact-center teams taught me that the numbers on a dashboard are never just numbers — they're stories about people, on both ends of the phone. The work I'm proudest of is helping others become the leader they didn't know they could be.

People first

Coaching beats commanding. Watch, do, teach — and meet people exactly where they are, not where the org chart says they should be.

Numbers tell stories

Data analysis requires a story. Trends, anomalies, quality scores: the fun part is finding the why.

Systems everywhere

The purpose of a system is what it does. If you don't like the outcome, change the system.

The toolbox

Free downloads, from my desk to yours.

Variations of tools I actually used that will help you improve teams. Take them, adapt them, make them yours.
