Anthony is extremely innovative and knowledgeable when it comes to marketing and product merchandising. I had the pleasure of working with Anthony for over a year on creating and managing merchandising campaigns for B2B Lenovo customer websites. We maximized web analytics reports to harvest merchandising insights which helped us make better decisions on creating merchandising content. We also performed A/B testing to ensure the campaigns he created would give customers the best buying experience and influence them to actually engage in the content pages, which helped increase revenues. I would highly recommend Anthony as he is always full of ideas, has a very progressive mindset, and is incredibly easy to work with. Anthony would be an extraordinary asset to any team!

I've worked with Anthony at Lenovo and worked on eCommerce project that involved strategic work around merchandising campaigns, web improvements and research. I appreciate his skills specially around optimization of marketing and advertising campaigns, SEO, and Social Media.
