@leidymena
I’m a Bilingual Travel Agent who builds seamless trips and trains client-facing teams.
What I'm looking for
I bring extensive bilingual (Spanish-English) customer service experience with deep healthcare support, interpretation, and client relations. I’m known for delivering exceptional service, resolving complex issues through detailed follow-up, and guiding people confidently through high-stakes processes.
Currently, I work as a Travel Agent where I design and coordinate customized travel experiences tailored to clients’ preferences and budgets. I was promoted to a training role within 6 weeks, mentoring new agents on booking systems, supplier usage, client communication, and best practices to consistently deliver memorable, stress-free travel. Earlier roles include Customer Service Representative work supporting licensing application processes (earned a Certificate of Excellence in Customer Service in 2023) and real-time interpretation/translation for patients and healthcare professionals.
