NSRC is Cleveland’s oldest marketing research firm, established in 1949. It serves a wide variety of

industries, but has enjoyed a core clientele in the transportation sector since 1989. During my tenure

with this firm, I oversaw or otherwise participated in completing over eight hundred research projects

in many industries. In 2005, NSRC was awarded a large multi-year contract to conduct satisfaction

research for transportation giant FedEx Services. I was chosen by NSRC’s president as the liaison for this

project, trained at FedEx headquarters, then returned to NSRC to launch and manage the project. Five

years and eighteen research modules later, NSRC’s relationship with FedEx Services is going strong.

Some other achievements include:

In my first years with NSRC, I graduated from calling in the phone room to managing the phone center

as well as performing data analysis and reporting on many of the projects I oversaw. Various

responsibilities and achievements during that time included:
