What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values customer service and offers opportunities for growth in the insurance industry.

I am a natural leader and skilled insurance adjuster with a proven ability to explain complex processes and procedures in layman's terms, ensuring that both insured individuals and claimants feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the claims process. My experience spans multiple states, providing me with a high familiarity with insurance nuances and regulations.

Currently, I work as a total loss adjuster at Elephant Insurance, where I manage claims from launch to final payout, evaluate physical damages, and prepare settlement documents. My previous roles as an Executive Chef have honed my skills in customer service, budgeting, and team management, allowing me to thrive in both team-based and individually motivated settings.

Throughout my career, I have received accolades such as Employee of the Quarter and Employee of the Month at Elephant Insurance, reflecting my commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. I am passionate about leveraging my diverse skill set to contribute positively to my next role.
