• Data Analysis: Consistently review performance data, including via software (i.e. Motion), raw data reports, and dashboards, in order to identify patterns and insights and recommend optimizations and iterations for improvement.

• Strategic Communication: Persuasively and confidently communicate recommendations and learnings to both internal and client stakeholders in a way that builds trust and contributes to efficiency in collaboration as well as client retention and growth.
