Customers don't leave because your product isn't good. They leave when onboarding feels confusing, support becomes frustrating, product value isn't realized quickly, or no one notices they're slipping away. That's where I come in.
I help SaaS, HealthTech, and eCommerce companies build customer experiences that increase product adoption, strengthen customer relationships, and improve retention. Whether it's onboarding new customers, managing customer health, resolving complex support issues, optimizing CRM workflows, or improving day-to-day support operations, my focus is always the same: helping your customers succeed so your business grows.
Over the past 6+ years, I've worked across Customer Success and Customer Support, partnering with fast-growing teams to create smoother customer journeys, reduce operational friction, and deliver consistent, high-quality experiences at every stage of the customer lifecycle.
Here's how I help:
✔Customer Onboarding & Product Adoption— Design onboarding experiences that help customers reach value faster, build confidence early, and increase long-term engagement.
✔Customer Success & Customer Health — Monitor customer engagement, conduct proactive check-ins, identify churn risks early, and create success plans that improve retention and renewals.
✔Customer Support Operations— Deliver responsive email, live chat, and ticket support through Zendesk, HubSpot, Gorgias, Intercom, and Gladly while maintaining high customer satisfaction and fast resolution times.
✔CRM Management & Process Optimization— Maintain clean, reliable customer data, optimize HubSpot and Salesforce workflows, automate repetitive tasks, and ensure your CRM supports better decision-making instead of slowing your team down.
✔Technical Support & Cross-Functional Collaboration— Troubleshoot complex issues, coordinate with product and engineering teams, manage escalations, and keep customers informed until every issue is resolved.
✔eCommerce Customer Experience — Support Shopify and Amazon Seller Central operations, improve order and customer workflows, and streamline repetitive processes using Google Sheets, Excel, Google Apps Script, Zapier, and workflow automation.
Clients value working with me because I don't wait for customers to become frustrated before taking action. I stay proactive, communicate clearly, improve the systems behind the customer experience, and help teams create scalable processes that support long-term growth, not just faster ticket resolution.

Great customer support doesn't just solve tickets. It protects revenue, strengthens customer loyalty, and creates the kind of experience that keeps customers coming back.
If your customers are struggling to adopt your product, your support queue is growing faster than your team can manage, or recurring issues are driving frustration and churn, you're dealing with more than a support problem. You're dealing with a customer experience challenge.
That's where I can help.
I'm a Customer Success and Technical Support professional with 7+ years of experience supporting SaaS, AI, FinTech, eCommerce, subscription, and technology companies across North America, Europe, and globally.
Throughout my career, I've partnered with startups, scale-ups, and established businesses to improve customer onboarding, resolve complex technical issues, reduce churn, optimize support operations, and build stronger customer relationships.
I don't believe great support is measured by how many tickets are closed.
I believe it's measured by how effectively customers achieve their goals, how quickly they find value in your product, and how confidently your team can scale as your business grows.
Here's how I help businesses:

7+ years, 22,000+ hours, and a strong track record across e-commerce and SaaS support.
I've supported companies both B2B and B2C, from health and fashion to skincare, mobility, and tech.
Different industries, same core truth: customer support is the spine of any thriving business. A customer's experience after they buy decides whether they ever come back, so I don't just close tickets, I turn frustrated or one-time customers into happy, returning ones. I work from a system for this, because retention is where the real growth is.
Day to day, that spans front-line email and chat support, managing help desks, onboarding new clients, and building the SOPs and macros a support team runs on. Difficult customers don't rattle me, and I'm just as comfortable calming someone down as I am walking them through a fix. What clients tend to say: warm with customers, quick to learn a new product, calm under pressure, and genuinely reliable. I treat your customers like they're my own.
Tools I work in: Zendesk, Helpscout, Intercom, Front, Freshdesk, Gorgias, Salesforce, Notion, Jira, Slack, Shopify, Stripe, Chargify, Retool, Airtable, Amazon Seller Central, LinnWorks, Magento, and more.
Whether you need dependable email and chat coverage or someone who can handle technical issues and onboarding, tell me what you're working on and I'll show you how I can help.

Customer Support & Customer Success Specialist for SaaS, AI, Tech & E-Commerce | Email, Phone & Chat Support | Reduce Churn, Resolve Tickets & Keep Users Coming Back.
Most SaaS founders don’t lose customers because of a bad product.
They lose them because their help desk has no system, no speed, and no specialist managing it.
If you are a founder still answering support tickets yourself, this profile is for you.
Every unanswered ticket, every confusing onboarding email, every “I couldn’t figure it out” is a cancelled subscription you didn’t have to lose.
That’s exactly what I fix.
I am a Customer Support, Customer Success & Technical Support Specialist helping SaaS, AI, Tech, and E-Commerce companies improve user retention, reduce churn, and deliver 5 star customer experiences without the founder drowning in support queues.
Here’s what working with me looks like:
◆ Help Desk & Ticket Management — clear, empathetic responses that resolve issues the first time, not after 3 follow ups, while keeping response time and CSAT targets on track.
◆ Onboarding & User Retention — I walk new users through your product so they activate, engage, and stick around instead of churning in the first 30 days.
◆ Technical Support & Troubleshooting — I handle complex support issues, manage escalations properly, and make sure no ticket falls through the cracks.
◆ Knowledge Base & Documentation — SOPs, knowledge base articles, FAQs, and help desk documentation that cut ticket volume and reduce recurring questions.
What I work with:
Zendesk | Freshdesk | Intercom | HubSpot | Gorgias | Zoho | Salesforce | Google Workspace | CRM Systems | Live Chat | Email Support | Chat Support | Ticketing Systems | Live chat software | online chat support | Live agent | Product knowledge
This is the right fit if you are:
◆ A SaaS, AI, Tech, or E-Commerce business scaling your support function.
◆An Operations or Customer Success leads who need a reliable specialist, not a coordinator.
◆A team that measures success in retention rates, CSAT scores, and churn metrics not just ticket counts.
I don’t just answer tickets.
I build the support infrastructure that keeps your customers and your revenue intact.
If that is what you are looking for, let’s schedule a conversation.
