My Story
Born in Kraków, Poland’s historic capital, I spent my teenage years in Central and Western Europe. When I was 19, my father’s engineering job brought my family to Atlanta, GA. I permanently moved to the U.S. in 2005, becoming an American citizen in 2011.
In 2008, I received my master’s degree in Communication Studies from the University of Miami. Since then, I’ve worked as a communication and customer service consultant, management analyst, researcher, and educator across the U.S.
I currently live in beautiful Tampa Bay with my fiancé, who's a retired NYPD detective, and our three cats: Chewy, Cloud, and Carlos.

My Professional Journey
Multicultural marketing
My master’s thesis in 2008 explored how culture impacts marketing communications. I applied this expertise to my work in multicultural marketing, serving clients such as the Jewel-Osco supermarket chain and Resurrection Health Care.
After returning to Atlanta, I transitioned into brand management, primarily in the multifamily housing industry.
Empathy and listening
Early in my career, I had a realization: customers are not just representatives of specific demographics. They are unique individuals within their local communities and families.
That’s when I discovered my passion for cognitive empathy — fully and accurately understanding each customer's experience. Soon, I shifted from marketing communications to customer service — focusing on interactions between employees and their individual customers.
Customer service
In 2014, I took on the task of transforming customer experience at the D.C. Housing Authority. Over the next decade, I designed automated systems, intelligent workflows, self-service tools, and education programs — centered on empathy-based customer service. You can find testimonials from program participants here.
I worked with hundreds of frontline experts, such as call center agents, property managers, and police officers — gaining valuable insights from their experiences and observations.
Effective communication
I also developed new protocols and training to help staff communicate effectively with each customer — including persons with disabilities, individuals with neurological differences, and customers who don’t speak English fluently.
I explored various language techniques such as plain, positive, and person-first language. The result: individual-first language — which is a comprehensive method for clear and respectful communication with each customer.
Path Mosaic — moving beyond aggregation
As my work with cognitive empathy evolved, I began asking new questions: If every customer is truly unique, why do traditional analytics treat them as averages, percentages, and segments? And why are businesses still relying on one-size-fits-all solutions that fail to address individual needs?
These questions led me to create Path Mosaic — an AI-enabled analytical method that moves beyond aggregation to generate hyper-personalized, evidence-based solutions. Click here to explore this next-generation, human-centered analytical method.
