- Developing client reporting strategy by working directly with Real Estate Partners to understand their needs and exploring innovative approaches such as agentic data access rather than static dashboards

- Defining and tracking key metrics such as reconciliation accuracy, billing cycle time, and revenue leakage to guide prioritization
- Communicating roadmap, progress, and risk to stakeholders across Product, Engineering, and Finance, including executive leadership
