Work History
Logistics, Service & Training, Operations Manager
Charter Communications, Spectrum
Portland, Maine
05.2010 - 12.2025
Wrapping up 15 1/2 years with Spectrum with the closure of our local call center. Starting in sales in 2010 and transitioning over the years through tech support, billing, offline support and finally account management. I handled both the home services (i.e. video, internet and home phone) as well as 5 years focused on mobile. A consistent top performer; I worked with leaders openly to identify opportunities and implement best practices to ensure my results were at the very front of the pack. I was chosen in 2023 to be part of an offline support team to assist with our back office ticketing system which was suffering from an extreme backlog at the time. Upon a return to a customer facing position the following year, I worked with leadership to develop best practices to improve agent scoring for our call monitoring analytics. As a result, my personal calls would be used throughout the call center to act as training examples for other agents and eventually being presented at the regional level to assist in training and development.
