After the studies in business communication and marketing I started my professional career at a media center of the WPP group where I learned in detail all the dynamics of on-line and off-line planning.
One year after I joined WPP I moved to another agency of the group where I started to play the role of Digital Analyst supporting transversally all the agency’s clients in a continuous process of optimizing online performance and planning.
In 2015 I decided to bring my skills into Optimize where at the moment I coordinate the Digital Analytics activities with particular focus on e-commerce sites. I support clients across different industries (fashion, banking, luxury, ensurace) by offering customized service to their needs including activities such as funnel optimization, conversion rate optimization implementation of tag management and A / B testing tools.
In the course of my work experience I have realized more and more that there are no standard solutions, but different needs that need ad hoc processes. My goal is not to provide my clients just a series of numbers, but to talk about these numbers and extrapolate the useful insight to grow a business.
