What do you admire most in other people?

I admire work ethic and women in leadership. I am drawn towards individuals who have a passion for what they do and a drive to complete it. Being a woman, I feel inspired by women who take on leadership roles within a company.

What latest development in analytics has you the most excited?

The latest development in analytics that excites me the most is the increased customer personalization from businesses. Due to the pandemic, customers like myself have been forced to work and shop online, which means many businesses have shifted gears to make their digital performance more efficient. With increased digitalization, more data is being generated to gather insights and increase the overall digital experience for individuals.

When you’re not working, what do you do for fun?

Outside of the workplace, I prefer to spend time outdoors and staying active. I enjoy a nice walk at the Kentucky Arboretum and getting fit at my favorite gym, Burn Bootcamp. When the weather doesn’t permit or I want to take a day off, I enjoy relaxing with my friends while watching a good movie.

What are you most proud of?

I am proud of my ability to learn in a fast-paced environment. Wiser Strategies is an environment that is constantly adapting and growing. I am proud to say that this company has allowed me to think more creatively, communicate more efficiently and think more critically to solve problems.
