About

Director with over 20 year's of operational/analytical experience in market research, digital media, data analytics and Product Management.

  • Led a team of 3+ data analysts
  • Mentored 10-20 team members
  • Trained over 50+ people

Though I was an English Major wanting to be a copy editor, I very quickly learned the Digital Media industry when I joined Comscore in 2003. Over the course of my almost 20 years of experience, I would categorize my understanding into three areas Knowledge/Skillset and Culture.

Knowledge

  • Deep understanding of evolving methodologies supporting Desktop, Mobile, CTV, Video products
  • Integral Knowledge of Comscore Taxonomy
  • QA/Data Analysis (reviewing/understanding/identifying/resolving issues)
  • Operational experience managing 30+ monthly product releases
  • Strong experience working with Product Management (Inception/Design/Testing/Release)
  • Experience with training, documentation & mentoring
  • HTML/JSON/XML/Javascript and how websites use these technologies

Skillset

  • Jira
  • Confluence
  • Scrum Process
  • SQL – Basic Knowledge
  • Microsoft Office Suite (Excel/Word/PowerPoint etc.)
  • Good project management and time management skills; able to prioritize and simultaneously work on multiple projects
  • Proprietary Internal Tools (SSRS, CFD Database/Pinnacle Systems)

Culture

  • I have been able to create lasting relationships with all members of my team (Junior to Senior) and have worked seamlessly with them over 2 decades. I learnt the team’s strengths/weaknesses and supported members through collaborative efforts. I continuously looked for opportunities to strategically realign my team to maximize efficiency, foster career path development and create an environment that allowed members to grow and see the big picture.
  • I have a proven track record of working well with other teams (Product Management/Engineering/Client Teams/Sales Teams/Operations). My goal has always been to improve the organization in as many areas as possible (products/automations/methodologies/documentation).
