What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own accurate legal documentation, coordinate day-to-day administrative workflows, and support case preparation reliably—building on my lead assistant experience and detail-focused research and transcription skills.

I’m a Legal Assistant III (Lead Assistant) with experience supporting child and family support work through the Utah Attorney General’s Office. I write and draft correspondence, reports, and documents, review materials for accuracy and completeness, reconcile discrepancies, and prepare court filings with trial preparation support.

I also lead administrative legal secretarial work, coordinating workplace procedures, schedules, and record keeping while managing calendars and staff coverage. Beyond legal support, I’ve built strong precision skills through transcription work, and I bring customer-facing communication and attention to detail from roles in hospitality, sales, and dental assisting—plus volunteer experience providing dental care and education in Guatemala.
