Dynamic law graduate with a passion for customer service excellence.
What I'm looking for
I am a dynamic and articulate law graduate with a strong foundation in legal principles and a passion for people-oriented service. As a certified arbitrator and former student senator, I possess exceptional interpersonal skills and leadership experience, which I bring to every role I undertake. My hands-on experience in the hospitality sector across the United States has allowed me to cultivate a niche for customer service excellence, operational management, and cross-cultural communication.
I am eager to leverage my legal training and customer service acumen in dynamic professional settings, whether legal, corporate, or client-facing. My career objective is to build a rewarding career at the intersection of law, customer relations, and organizational strategy, applying analytical reasoning and service excellence to solve problems, manage people, and deliver value in high-impact environments.
