About
With a diverse and dynamic career spanning over a decade, I have cultivated a robust skill set that bridges sales, web development, marketing, search engine optimization (SEO), data management, system integrations, and in-depth expertise with UKG products such as UKG Pro and UKG Ready.
Leadership at UKG
At UKG, I have grown through various roles, culminating in my position as Associate Manager of Product Support. Over the past nine years, I have embodied UKG’s ‘People First’ ethos, driving team excellence in customer support and professional development. I lead a dedicated team of Partner Support Representatives, guiding them with coaching, career guidance, and retention strategies. My responsibilities include promoting UKG’s values and strategies, leading initiatives to enhance internal processes and employee experience, and providing continuous feedback to improve individual and team performance.
Technical Expertise and Innovation
As a Senior Support Solutions Specialist, I provided outstanding support for UKG’s UltiPro suite, including security administration, workflow configuration, web services, and Integration Studio. My technical understanding allowed me to mentor frontline support representatives, troubleshoot complex issues, and recommend effective solutions leveraging the growing number of REST APIs from UKG products. I designed and developed an internal alerting system that drastically improved response times to customer escalations by 50% and extended its functionality to improve response times for internal support requests by 82%.

Our bespoke SEO strategies elevate our client’s online presence and significantly boost their lead generation and investment opportunities. Through Studio350, I provide various creative services, including web and mobile application development, web design, graphics design, print services, SEO, and social media marketing. I deliver unique, user-friendly, search-optimized, and responsive websites that provide an outstanding client experience.

At Studio350, I have successfully driven business sales by providing exceptional web development, graphics design, and SEO services, educating clients on the value of user-friendly, search-optimized, responsive websites. Meanwhile, at REToolkit, I have focused on revolutionizing SEO for real estate investors, significantly boosting their lead generation and investment opportunities.
