I build research systems that help organizations turn human complexity into product strategy, operational clarity and measurable business outcomes.

Selected Work

Turning Customer Conversations Into Organizational Change

The data showed conversion was falling. It couldn't explain why. This research initiative found the answer and moved the needle from 3.2% to 7.4%.

How Research Helped Restore Trust in Evolve’s Pricing System

Owners didn’t fear discounts, they feared losing control. This research reframed Evolve’s pricing strategy and helped drive $3.8M above target stayed booking value.

Operationalizing Customer Journey Research to Drive Conversion Recovery

Research reports weren’t changing behavior. I built a VOC program that brought real users directly into roadmap, leadership and product conversations.
