As Vice President, Market Research and Analytics and Avenue M’s Data Protection Officer, Trevor’s responsibilities include collaborating with and assisting the Avenue M team on all aspects of our marketing and research projects. He communicates with clients, manages projects and oversees correct implementation of data security and best practices during data collection. He is involved in virtually every step of each project, from client kick-offs to survey drafting, survey programming and quality assurance, and data analysis and reporting. Trevor also performs a majority of the data analytics for the Avenue M team, ranging from basics like descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and crosstabulation, to more advanced techniques such as latent class analysis, correspondence analysis, Max Diff and discrete choice modeling.
