United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced office administrator and sales professional based in New Orleans, Louisiana. Currently, I work at Louisiana Flooring Company, where I inform customers about various flooring options and manage social media profiles for local and national brands. My role involves drawing and interpreting floor plans, creating estimates, and ensuring smooth communication between vendors, customers, and warehouse employees.
Previously, I served as a Sales Representative at Banana Manor, where I engaged with customers to help them find the perfect rugs for their homes. I developed a deep understanding of weaving techniques and materials, which allowed me to create custom orders that met customer specifications. My experience also includes managing the front-of-house operations at Chiba Sushi, where I ensured guest satisfaction and maintained a high standard of service.
