In his most recent role at Gap Inc, Chris led the team responsible for data-driven, evidence-based strategies across the enterprise, from customer and marketing to supply chain to product operations. Prior to Gap, he led data teams for a wide variety of companies, including Apple, Intuit, and JCPenney. He has extensive experience building data science organizations and platforms and has applied statistical and analytic rigor to a variety of functions including marketing, customer experience, loyalty, customer service/support, and supply chain/inventory analytics.
“Amperity is known for providing some of the largest consumer brands with the strongest, most complete customer data foundation, yet the greatest challenge lies in making that data actionable and turning it into insights that drive positive impact on the business,” said Chris. “One might raise an eyebrow to making a career jump from running analytics at a major global retailer to running a customer success team at a tech startup. But as a customer of Amperity’s, I saw firsthand how their data foundation transforms business and customer analytics, and knew I had to be a part of the company’s next stage of growth.”
