I evaluate vehicle damage, negotiate fair repairs, and deliver timely, accurate auto claim decisions.
What I'm looking for
I've evaluated vehicle damage and repair estimates at Utica National, preparing accurate estimates, negotiating repair costs with body shops, and supporting timely claim settlements.
I communicate throughout the claims process with customers, repair facilities, and claim representatives while maintaining complete claim files and meeting productivity, quality, and customer service goals.
Previously, I estimated structural, body, mechanical, and interior vehicle damage at Friendly Chevrolet, calculating labor and parts costs and coordinating with technicians, managers, and customers.
At Windhaven Insurance/Sprinters Auto, I supervised and coached a team of eleven, reviewed desk estimates, conducted ride-alongs and reinspections, and worked closely with vehicle owners and body shops.
