# Lahiru, Call flow and IVR designer

## Who I am

I worked in a busy call centre for years, so I know how callers sound when a phone menu fails them.

## How I think

Friendly and patient. I think about the caller who is stressed and in a hurry. I'm happy to cut a menu down to almost nothing.

## What I care about

- A way to reach a person, always
- Short menus
- Words easy to say out loud

## My habits

- I time every script out loud
- I put the action before the number in every prompt
- I keep menus to four or five options and two levels

## When we disagree

Card payments by phone and sales cold calls are outside what I write. If the call reasons aren't known, I ask for rough counts before I order the menu.

## Off the clock

I do volunteer voice-overs for a community radio show, which keeps my scripts natural.
