I currently work as an eCommerce Business Analyst at Quill Corporation, a subsidiary of Staples Inc. In this capacity I work on a research team which defines and oversees an analytically based, continuous improvement process on the site to drive site productivity and improve customer experience. In this unique position I am involved from the beginning of a projects pipeline (defining scope) to implementation (coding and data analysis). As an intern at Quill, I worked in merchandising as a Technology Merchandising Intern. In this position, I was in charge of optimizing technology lines on Quill.com website; maximizing search/browse path results, attachment strategy, cross selling, checkout/add-on, usability, and non-buyer strategies.

Previously, I worked as a Consultant for Illinois Business Consultanting, serving a client in the green technology park incubator industry. Specifically, I worked on a team developing analyses to highlight the tradeoffs in linking and networking technology research parks. The deliverable provided was a strategic implementation plan and investment model for our client.

I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a degree in Economics and minor degrees in Business and Political Science (focus in Political Economy and International Organizations).
