What I'm looking for
I bring over 20 years of professional experience across administration, office management, and contracts/records management, with deep expertise in claims accuracy, compliance, and customer service.

I’ve also supported executive teams and investigations in fast-paced environments, handling billing/invoicing, accounts receivable/payable, purchasing, inventory control, proofreading, and training—always with a strong focus on precision, conflict resolution, and service quality.
