What I'm looking for

I am seeking a stable role with advancement opportunities where I can apply sales, customer service, and technical skills to drive retention and business growth.

I am a versatile sales and customer service professional with experience across insurance, healthcare access, retail merchandising, and technical repair roles. I consistently combine empathy and communication skills to drive client satisfaction and retention.

In insurance and patient-access positions, I generated and qualified leads, managed client accounts, and ensured compliance with company standards while maintaining detailed records and personalized follow-ups. As a retail merchandiser and sales lead, I executed product placements, optimized store layouts, and mentored associates to exceed sales targets.

My technical background includes device repair, inventory management, CRM and ticketing systems, and delivering product demonstrations and workshops to customers. I leverage problem-solving and adaptability to triage issues and provide efficient, customer-centered solutions.

I seek stable roles with opportunity for advancement where I can apply my multifaceted skill set to contribute to business success and foster collaborative, forward-thinking work environments.
