What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a paralegal, legal assistant, compliance, or administrative role where I can support attorneys and clients through accurate legal research, organized case preparation, documentation workflows, and dependable recordkeeping.

I'm completing an ABA-approved Associate of Arts in Paralegal Studies and have used Lexis, Westlaw, CIRAC/IRAC methods, and Bluebook citation rules to analyze case law, prepare legal memoranda, and create case summaries for trial preparation.

At Amazon, I resolved delivery delays, documented lost-inventory claims, coordinated discrepancy resolution across departments, and maintained audit trails and compliance records. My background in academic operations and administrative support has strengthened my ability to manage records, schedules, documentation, and client-facing communication accurately.
