Bio
Rob Landis
I had the pleasure of working with Christa for over 4 years. She has outstanding technical skills as a data and analytics lead, she can work directly with code to implement changes as well as steer her team as business needs change. She has a unique ability to be technical as well as work with product and business stakeholders to set KPIs and timelines. She was able to put together comprehensive and executable roadmaps for our team after working with other engineering teams to gather data requirements, these included a balance of ad-hoc requests as well as long-term data platform needs. She possesses a special quality of addressing at short-term business needs in tandem with keeping long team company goals.

As my manager, she listened to professional and personal issues that came up in my life and earned all of my trust. She empowered me to do my best work and I loved working on her team.
