Neal Vazquez: Consulting & Career Services résumé

Also known as Mio · Portland, Oregon

Customer experience analytics. Clear business decisions.

I bring more than eight years of experience across Nuance, Microsoft, and HCLTech, connecting customer experience, data analysis, and conversational technology. My work spans call center and digital support experiences, SQL and Python analysis, KPI frameworks, and clear recommendations for business and technical teams.

Contact center & customer experience focus

Operational performance

Average handle time (AHT), first contact resolution (FCR), contact volume, resolution rates, and agent performance. Understand how the measures relate, including the tradeoff between a shorter interaction and a resolved issue.

Voice of the customer

Customer satisfaction (CSAT), Net Promoter Score (NPS), and feedback from surveys and conversations. Connect what customers say with what happens in their support journeys.

Root causes & decisions

Ask the right business questions, examine drivers and patterns, and turn findings into recommendations. Use IVR, routing, speech recognition, and conversational AI knowledge to interpret the experience.
