@jeanpaulsilva
Detail-oriented professional transitioning into law and finance.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and highly adaptable professional with 17 years of experience in online education and client communication. My journey has led me to develop a strong foundation in teaching English to professionals and corporate clients, delivering over 15,000 hours of instruction. I have honed my skills in managing client communications, scheduling, and report generation, all while working autonomously in remote, multicultural environments.
Currently, I am transitioning into law, finance, accounting, and administrative support. I am pursuing an online degree in Business, Law, and Finance, which complements my extensive experience in digital tools and client support. I am eager to contribute to an international consultancy and grow into advanced responsibilities in these fields, leveraging my strong attention to detail and process-oriented approach.
