Experience

1. Sr Retail Intelligence Manager - Customer Success

   SPS Commerce

   Apr 2016 — Present · Little Falls, NJ, US

   SPS Commerce is a SaaS company that provides a cloud-based Business Intelligence tool to aggregate and report on point-of-sale analytics utilized by both Retailers and their Suppliers to make informed business decisions. I engage with both high-profile and emerging Brands and Retailers to design and develop reports and dashboards to optimize their analytics with the intention of making data-driven decisions that payoff in action-oriented insights. Some examples of the end results of these actions are increasing product sell-through, decreasing inventory liabilities and configuring the most profitable product assortments. I share best practices in reporting - including key custom metrics and impactful visualizations within the MicroStrategy platform. My ability to create visual representations of data allow insights to jump off the page and seamlessly turn those insights into actions.
