Cherie Doomanis, Vice President

Cherie Doomanis is an alumni of the California State University, Northridge, and immediately after school began her career in the customer research and retention industry. She has a substantial customer service knowledge base and is able to address industry specific concerns such as brand compliance, quality assurance and guest experience. Her clients include restaurant and retail chains, grocery stores, automobile dealerships, banks, hotels and more – with both regional and worldwide locations. Cherie is passionate about the industry and helping clients achieve growth.

In her spare time, Cherie likes to indulge her interests in art history, whether it means getting to a museum or just perusing the local antique store. And, these days, her favorite thing to do is to figure out fun activities for her son, Peter.


Joan Dalumpines, Operations Manager

Joan began her career in customer service more than a decade ago. Since joining Dynamic Advantage, she has continued to expand and develop the Mystery Shopping personnel unit, where she interacts with thousands of professional shoppers on a daily basis. Her experience in customer retention and her degree in Human Resources from California State University, Northridge, help her to analyze the diverse perspective of both clients and shoppers.

Joan is interested in music, movies, billiards, bowling, sports (especially basketball when the Lakers are playing,) and will always be a fan of everything from the 80’s.
