What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my organizational skills and client communication abilities in a supportive legal environment, with opportunities for professional growth.

I am an organized and detail-oriented administrative professional currently pursuing a Bachelor’s in English with a concentration in Professional Writing. My experience includes data management, client communication, and office support, which has equipped me with strong research, writing, and time management skills essential for a successful career in the legal field.

At Tonnie’s Accounting, I have honed my skills as an Administrative/Data Entry Assistant, where I maintained accurate financial records using QuickBooks and Excel. I created and optimized filing systems and digital workflows, significantly improving data retrieval efficiency. My role also involved communicating with clients regarding financial records, showcasing my professionalism and discretion, which are vital in legal settings.

As I transition into the legal field, I am dedicated to pursuing an ABA-accredited degree in Paralegal Studies post-graduation. I am eager to leverage my skills in a fast-paced legal environment, where my ability to manage competing demands and resolve client issues with diplomacy will be invaluable.
