What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork, offers growth opportunities, and allows me to leverage my customer service and claims expertise.

With over a decade of experience in customer service and seven years in insurance claims, I am dedicated to making a positive impact through compassionate service. My career has been marked by my ability to multitask, manage complex schedules, and provide exceptional administrative support. I pride myself on my problem-solving skills and my proficiency in using data to drive team goals.

Currently, I work as a Claims Adjuster at Assurant, where I evaluate car accident claims for American Express Card Members. My role requires a deep understanding of insurance policies and state regulations, which I apply to assess claims accurately while upholding company standards. I am also an effective communicator, capable of explaining complex claim processes to card members and negotiating settlements with rental agencies.

Previously, I served as an Executive Assistant to the Claims Vice President at Weston Insurance, where I assisted with claims processes and ensured legal compliance. My experience as an Operations Specialist III further honed my skills in optimizing operational responsibilities and maintaining high-quality service. I am committed to continuous improvement and leveraging my skills to contribute to team success.
