Description

Anne Cooper is the Vice President of Global Customer Care at Board International. She started her career in sales and has an MBA with an emphasis in Brand Management and Marketing. She has worked in Loyalty Marketing for Visa and managed relationships with vendors on behalf of Visa. She then transitioned into Account Management, which is now called Customer Success. Afterward, she made a switch to Operations at Best Buy Corporate, where she learned the Customer Care side of the business and managed a large organization focused on phone, in-home, store, and remote delivery of service and support.
