What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my leadership skills and focus on performance improvement in a dynamic environment.

I am a dedicated Customer Service Team Leader with over a decade of experience at Discover Financial Services. My journey began as an Inbound Customer Service Representative, where I honed my skills in customer interaction and problem-solving. Over the years, I have progressed to manage a team of account managers, fostering a supportive environment that emphasizes performance metrics and compliance. My leadership in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) initiatives has been instrumental in training and onboarding new agents, ensuring they are well-prepared to meet our customers' needs.

As a Training Specialist, I have been recognized as the Top Training Specialist for two consecutive years. I thrive in fast-paced environments, collaborating with business partners to analyze agent performance and develop targeted training solutions. My commitment to enhancing agent performance through detailed feedback and coaching has led to significant improvements in our team's overall efficiency and customer satisfaction. I am passionate about creating a culture of continuous improvement and am always looking for ways to elevate the customer experience.
