"I feel privileged to marry the best aspects of conventional customer service with cutting-edge, industry-leading customer success methodologies and technologies," Wilson said. "I'm eager to expand the customer success team and to build upon the company's culture of Customers for Life' to deliver on our commitment to superior solutions and results."
