q&a

  • What’s your favorite thing about Market Research? What do you enjoy about Market Research?

    I love learning new industries from the bottom up.  One of the great things about doing B2B research is you often get to see and interact with aspects of products and services that you never would have even thought of as a consumer of them.

  • If you weren't in market research, what profession would you like to attempt?

    I am really into fitness and nutrition. I’d probably be a fitness coach or work in corporate wellness.

  • What song would you sing karaoke to?

    u003cemu003eWaterfalls u003c/emu003eby TLC. I know the entire rap part by heart.

  • What is the best piece of advice you ever received? 

    Don’t take yourself too seriously. Laugh and the world laughs with you.
