What I'm looking for
My name is Lea Torres, and I am a dedicated customer service representative with a strong background in the retail and food service industries. I have honed my skills in communication, problem-solving, and customer satisfaction through various roles, including my recent position at Safeway Corporate, where I successfully managed customer inquiries and resolved issues across multiple platforms. My commitment to excellence has been recognized through promotions and responsibilities that reflect my ability to adapt and thrive in fast-paced environments.
In addition to my professional experience, I own a stay-at-home bakery business where I manage everything from customer orders to social media promotion. This venture has allowed me to develop my skills in time management, attention to detail, and customer service, as I create custom cakes and treats that bring joy to my clients. I am passionate about learning and growing in my career, and I am eager to bring my skills and enthusiasm to a new opportunity.
