What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values customer service and offers growth opportunities in claims processing.

With over 29 years of experience as an Auto Collision Estimator, I have honed my skills in accurately assessing vehicle damage and preparing comprehensive repair estimates. My career has been dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service while collaborating effectively with insurance providers to ensure fair and efficient claim resolutions.

Throughout my tenure, I have developed a strong expertise in utilizing estimating software such as CCC One and Mitchell, enabling me to prepare precise repair estimates that comply with insurer and OEM standards. My ability to negotiate with adjusters and maintain high customer satisfaction has been pivotal in my success. I am now eager to transition into a Claims Appraiser role, where I can leverage my technical knowledge and negotiation skills to further enhance the claims process.
