Operations leader · Analytics engineering · Builder

I run operations and build the systems that make them possible to run — and audit.

Contact-center operations, custom analytics and tooling, and quality systems — held together by one idea: ease. When the work is easier for the people doing it, it is easier for the customer.

The through-line

An operator who engineers.

Most operations managers don’t build their own tooling; most tool-builders don’t run teams. I do both. Over the past year I moved from Operations Manager to Implementation Lead, third-party CX certification on a global customer-care program, and along the way I built most of the analytical and operational infrastructure the site runs on — while running a team with the discipline that infrastructure was designed to serve.

For a decade, overlapping my first years in operations, I worked in medical devices as a product manager and co-founder, where I became a named inventor on five U.S. biopsy-device patents and carried products through two acquisitions. Different industry, same instinct: understand the problem deeply, then build the thing that solves it.

What I can do

Four things, one operator.

01

Operations Leadership

Run a contact-center operation of 10 supervisors and ~200 advisors. An unbroken weekly one-on-one with every supervisor, a monthly operating standard for the whole team, and a supervisor onboarding program built from scratch. A closed-loop coaching model that measures whether coaching actually moved the metric — and launched a new line of business end to end.

02

Analytics & Data Engineering

Turn hostile raw exports into tools people actually use. Advanced dynamic-array Excel (LET, LAMBDA, FILTER, XLOOKUP), Power Query M, SAP BusinessObjects design, and a weekly ETL pipeline over enterprise BI sources. The centerpiece: an operations dashboard that runs entirely offline — one operating system synthesized from raw workforce and performance data — used every day by ~50 supervisors and managers.

03

Software & Tooling

Build self-contained offline web applications (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), Chrome extensions (Manifest V3), Python build pipelines, and VBA automation — an ecosystem of internal tools that replaced manual reporting across attendance, adherence, quality, coaching, staffing, and cost, and put self-serve analytics in every supervisor’s hands.

04

Quality & Standards

Certified implementation leader (third-party CX standard R8.0); led the site to recertification in May 2026 against the rigorous third-party customer-experience standard the client requires. DMAIC problem-solving, statistically-sampled quality measurement, and target-setting governance that aligns metrics with defensible, auditable measurement rather than reporting artifacts.

How I work

A consistent signature.

  • Ingest the ugly upstream — and return something a person can actually read.
  • Build for the exact moment someone is looking at the screen.
  • Validate before you ship. Perfect before you bake.
  • Don’t hoard the tooling — package it so the whole team can self-serve.
  • Investigate before you correct. Judgment is never handed to a script.
  • Systems and people are one discipline — the tools exist to help supervisors develop their people, not merely watch them.

Deep dive

The build log.

An exhaustive inventory of the systems behind the day job, catalogued for the technically curious — the note below explains the one thing it leaves out.

01

Browser-extension ecosystem

5 systems

A connected suite of Manifest V3 extensions and single-file tools, built inside a locked-down corporate browser and operating entirely from file:// origins.

The tools stay inside the envelope.

The personal build behind it — read the Multitool field manual →

Single-file IDE & control plane name withheld

File System Access APIIndexedDBsingle-file

An extension IDE, deployment pipeline, settings store, and bookmark manager in one self-contained HTML file run from file://. Manages multiple unpacked extensions, scaffolds new ones, and ingests whole-folder bundles through a fenced-block format with a name-match guard against accidental cross-paste. Writes real files via the File System Access API; autosave rides IndexedDB with signature comparison.

Privileged bridge extension

postMessage protocolchrome.bookmarksleast privilege

Grants the control plane Chrome-level reach from a file:// origin over a request/response envelope protocol: seven commands covering namespaced storage, full bookmark-tree read/write with favicon capture, and window/tab launching. A pinned manifest key fixes the extension ID; permissions are scoped to exactly three APIs.

Universal in-page toolkit

offscreen documentsshadow DOMSPA routing

A dual-FAB overlay injected across a single-page-app estate: route patching and MutationObserver unified into one onRoute(), a display wake-lock kept alive by a near-silent offscreen audio loop, scroll-capture-to-text, a local-tool launcher, copy/paste slots, a keystroke feed, and a global styles sheet propagated live across iframes and shadow roots.

Site-documentation surface

element pickingselector capture

An element picker with a persistent documentation table that records target identity per click — ignoring any injected UI — so every internal domain gets structured selector documentation that downstream extraction tools import.

SAP data-extraction extension

SAPUI5 internalsMAIN-world injectionnested iframes

Crosses JavaScript world boundaries to read SAPUI5 binding contexts directly (a content script’s isolated world can’t see window.sap), fans extraction triggers across nested iframes, and returns payloads through a shadow-DOM sidebar. Four extraction modes: query-panel scrape, object/variable definition reads, coordinate-grid tables, and indent-stack tree reconstruction.

A note on what’s missing Everything here is my own work, but it belongs to the operation it serves — so product names, internal identifiers, and client context are withheld to protect proprietary work. The architecture, scale, and technique are exactly as described. Ask me about any of it in an interview and I’ll go as deep as confidentiality allows.

Abstract

A biopsy device includes coaxially disposed inner and outer needles in which the outer needle tip is configured for obtaining a tissue sample. The inner surface of the outer needle includes a tissue retention feature which may include a countersink and/or a feature formed in the inner surface. The device may be introduced to a biopsy site through an introducer in which the introducer is vented and/or a certain ratio of introducer inner diameter and biopsy device outer diameter is maintained. The full core devices also permit a tighter tolerance between the I.D. and O.D. of the outer cannula and stylet, respectively, which further permits the use of a smaller gage introducer. Full devices also include a sample trap assembly operable to enlarge the sample cavity after the full core sample has been obtained.
