@kiarabush
Customer-focused professional skilled in communication and tech adaptability.
What I'm looking for
I am a customer-focused professional with a background in retail, sales, and corrections, committed to delivering solutions that prioritize end users. I bring strong written and verbal communication skills, a people-first mindset, and the ability to learn new tools quickly.
My experience ranges from frontline retail roles at Office Depot and Follett Corporation to a safety-focused role as a Correctional Officer at Jennings Correctional Facility, where I enforced rules, managed incidents, and maintained accurate documentation.
I am highly organized, effective at time management, and proficient with remote collaboration tools such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams. I have a track record of supporting customers directly and collaborating with teams to ensure functional, reliable outcomes.
Outside of paid work, I have been active in community and campus involvement, including League of Scholars and Kappa Alpha Pi Pre-Law Fraternity, where I supported outreach activities and served as historian using tools like Adobe Photoshop.
