Frame the work
The situation I was solving
Customer data across transactions, loyalty, digital behaviour, orders, and returns does not become useful simply because it appears in one dashboard. Identity, definitions, freshness, consent, and decision ownership must be resolved first.

What becomes better
The product frame connects customer-level insight to specific actions while making known/unknown customer mix, match quality, returns, channel overlap, and data exceptions visible.
Design the system
How I work through it

What I carry forward
A 360-degree view is not a screen. It is decision infrastructure—and its quality is limited by the identity and governance underneath it.
