About Serena

Serena, founder of Startup Customer Success

Welcome! I’m Serena, the founder of Startup Customer Success, a seasoned professional with over 15 years of experience in the dynamic field of customer success. My journey has been characterized by a deep commitment to elevating startups, particularly from seed through to Series B stages. Having led customer success teams for a decade, I’ve honed my expertise in building and implementing robust customer success strategies from scratch, strategies that have consistently propelled startups to new heights of growth and success.

My career has evolved to a point where I now share my wealth of knowledge as a consultant for early-stage startups. My role involves guiding these budding companies in establishing their own customer success programs, ensuring they have a solid foundation to grow and thrive in competitive markets.

The ethos that has driven my career and the philosophy behind Startup Customer Success is simple: Customer success is not just a department but an organization-wide commitment, where the customer success team serves as the vanguard. I firmly believe that every team member, regardless of their role, contributes to the overall experience and success of our customers. This philosophy has been the cornerstone of my approach, ensuring a cohesive and comprehensive strategy that puts customer satisfaction at the forefront.

A guiding principle of my career is the realization that every customer interaction is a story in itself, a narrative that can shape the future of a product, a company, and the experience of countless other users. This perspective has always inspired me to see beyond data points and to appreciate the human element inherent in our field.

Outside of work, I’m an avid tech enthusiast, constantly exploring the latest trends in technology. Outside of the office, you can usually find me lost in a good book or enjoying the serenity of nature on hiking trails.

I am excited to share my insights, experiences, and passion for customer success with you. Here’s to fostering enduring customer relationships and driving sustainable growth together!
