About Me
About Myself
Welcome to the personal website of Mike Schepker. Here you can find out a little about me. I work for a global software company headquartered in the St. Louis area.
Customer Support
Currently, I work in Product Support for a software company. The work I do ensures that millions of users across the world have successful interactions with the companies and venues that use the software. Previously, I worked as a Quality Engineer for a year and Senior Client Care Consultant for 5 years. Since I started working there, customer support has become an obsession of mine. Creating great customer support experiences is what differentiates a company you simply do business with from a company you love doing business with.
