🤔 I don’t believe customer service is just about resolving tickets — it’s about understanding behavior, pressure, and expectations on both sides. It’s what builds trust and shapes how customers experience a business.
Over the years, I’ve worked in high-volume customer support environments at [24]7.ai India, a global leader in BPO, supporting a U.S.-based e-commerce program. This experience has helped me balance empathy with performance and deliver practical, end-to-end solutions.
As a Subject Matter Expert (SME), I support teams through real-time guidance and coaching, helping improve performance while maintaining a strong customer focus across chat, email, and SMS channels.
Recognized for strong performance, I bring experience in mentoring teams, managing both remote and onsite operations, and contributing to high levels of customer satisfaction.
🚀 Looking to contribute to roles focused on team performance, operations, and customer experience.
