United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated professional with over five years of experience in claims adjusting, specializing in auto and residential property claims. My journey began with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Communication from Arizona State University, which laid the foundation for my effective communication skills. I have honed my expertise at USAA and Farmers, where I coordinated and maintained business relationships with clients, agents, and medical providers, ensuring fair and accurate claims compensation.
During my tenure, I have demonstrated my ability to analyze complex data, including contractor estimates and medical reports, to evaluate damages and negotiate liability effectively. My experience in the United States Army National Guard as a Multichannel Transmission Systems Operator/Maintainer has further enhanced my leadership skills and ability to work under pressure. I am self-motivated and organized, having successfully adapted to remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic while continuing to support my team and train new employees.
