I currently manage global customer advocacy activities, developing customer stories from interview through publication and supporting Sales and pre-sales teams with relevant customer evidence and references.

I oversee customer story and reference content operations, including a global hub containing thousands of assets. I coordinate with customers, Marketing, Sales, external agencies, and international stakeholders to ensure content is accurate, accessible, and useful.

My work includes customer peer-review campaigns, case studies, customer video production, sales enablement, market analysis, and corporate communications. I enjoy improving processes and delivering practical, high-quality outcomes.

I also build AI-assisted content workflows using Microsoft Copilot and generative AI tools to improve efficiency, consistency, and content governance while maintaining factual accuracy and human review.

I am comfortable learning new platforms and collaborating across international teams. My background combines technology marketing, storytelling, digital content operations, customer service, financial operations, and graphic design.
