What I'm looking for

I am seeking a customer-facing role in a collaborative company where I can apply my claims support, documentation, and problem-solving skills while growing into expanded responsibilities.

I am a customer-focused service specialist with experience in healthcare member support, financial document analysis, and high-volume hospitality roles. I consistently resolve issues on first contact, document interactions thoroughly, and collaborate with teams to improve processes.

At Cigna and UnitedHealthcare I handled inbound member inquiries about claims, benefits, eligibility, and prior authorizations while troubleshooting and explaining coverage details. I analyze complaints to identify root causes and contribute feedback for service improvement.

Previously I worked in restaurants providing outstanding guest experiences and at Caterpillar Financial Services reviewing regulatory documents, preparing financial reports, and creating training materials. I bring attention to detail, strong communication, and a commitment to meeting quality and production goals.
