Customer support professional who resolves inquiries and keeps accurate records with clear, calm communication.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Customer Support Professional experienced in handling customer inquiries and resolving issues through phone, email, chat, and digital platforms. I bring strong communication and active listening, along with conflict resolution and de-escalation to keep conversations professional and productive.
I’ve supported customers using CRM and ticketing systems, managed data entry and record keeping, and coordinated tasks efficiently while collaborating remotely with tools like Slack, Zoom, Trello, HubSpot, and Monday.com. In prior roles, I handled inbound inquiries, made outbound sales calls (Bayport Financial Services), and later managed calendars, emails, reporting, and online research as a Virtual Assistant—work I’m excited to bring to a new team.
