What I'm looking for
As a dedicated customer service representative and medical interpreter, I bring over 2.5 years of experience in customer-related roles. My journey has equipped me with strong communication skills, active listening, and the ability to adapt quickly to various situations. I am committed to providing exceptional service and ensuring that every interaction is handled with empathy and professionalism.
Currently, I work at AMN Healthcare, where I interpret healthcare-related calls, requiring a deep understanding of medical terminology and the ability to build rapport with patients and providers alike. My previous roles at Doordash and Language Line Services have further honed my skills in customer service, allowing me to achieve excellent metrics and contribute positively to team dynamics.
With a Bachelor's Degree in Audiovisual Languages and Production, I am also passionate about continuous learning and personal growth. I am eager to leverage my skills in a challenging environment where I can contribute to the success of my team and the organization.
