ABOUT ME
I'm a digital problem solver. Let me bring my next-level ideas and innovative thinking to your organization.
Since the age of one, when I pulled out the drawers in the kitchen to climb up to the counter to raid the cookie jar, I've been fascinated with figuring out the better way to do things. Those skills translate well in the digital space where problems abound and you need someone with creative ideas and the experience to find a path to success.

FEATURED PROJECT



Branding & Identity
Fanfare Customer Loyalty Program
Innovative payment card-based loyalty product offered to small businesses who use Elavon's payment processing services. Consumers join a merchant's custom loyalty program directly through the point of sale terminal and their loyalty account is their credit or debit card. No need to bother with keyring tags or apps. A simple online interface allows merchants to track customer activity and provide loyalty incentives such as percent/dollars off or free product. Loyal customers can be rewarded with a surprise when they pay - this one's on the house!

Adaptively-Responsive Global Website built in Sitecore
Elavon.com & PixelMEDIA/POSSIBLE
Building on a mobile-first strategy, we rebuilt our global websites (Elavon.com, Elavon.co.uk, Elavon.de, Elavon.ie, Elavon.pl, Elavon.no) on the powerful Sitecore platform, allowing us to have one website that dynamically adapts to the user's device without requiring a desktop and mobile version. Utilizing the Sitecore CMS and DMS we are able to quickly deploy content changes globally, across all country sites and dynamically publish content based on attribution and target audience personas.

Instant Decisions Lead Gen Campaign
Elavon.co.uk & SparksGrove
Instant Decisions is a cutting-edge, industry-leading online customer underwriting and boarding utility, custom-developed in-house by Elavon's The Grove mobile innovations center. It allows Elavon to review a customer's application in realtime to determine creditworthiness, ascertain and identify risk, and essentially approve a credit card processing customer. Decisioning takes less than 15 seconds using a variety of consumer databases to determine approval. The platform was first made available for our UK market, specifically for mobile payments customers.

VIEW PROJECT
Twitter-based Customer Support
@ElavonService for EU Customer Servicing
Elavon is a well-known brand in Europe. There was a growing need to support younger customers who first turn to social media for customer service outreach. Developing a Social Media Ambassador concept and recruiting experienced, multilingual contact center reps from our Dublin, Ireland and Warsaw, Poland support centers solved for the critical lack of coverage via Twitter.

VIEW PROJECT
Georgia Tech Denning Program
Elavon & GA Tech
The Steven A. Denning Technology & Management Program at Georgia Tech is a prestigious education program for engineering and business majors to learn how to apply classroom knowledge to solve real-world problems. Elavon is a corporate affiliate. For 2013-2014 a real-world problem was assigned to a student team to solve. The topic was "Sales Force Sophistication in a Digital World".
