Customer Support Specialist combining IT support and AI passion to improve customer outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven customer support professional with over 7 years of Customer Education experience in BPO, sales, tele-collections, and technical support. I handle high-volume customer interactions and resolve complex issues across phone, email, and chat, consistently meeting performance targets while delivering excellent customer experiences.
Since February 2023, I’ve worked as a Computer Technician providing onsite and remote technical support, installing and configuring software solutions, and training users to improve adoption and satisfaction. Previously, I delivered strong outcomes as a Customer Care Representative (maintaining 70% sales performance, contributing to a 20% increase in volume) and as a Collections Officer by reducing delinquency through consistent follow-up—while also building long-term client relationships. With a Diploma in Information Technology and certifications in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, I’m open to remote opportunities in customer support, technical support, and AI-related roles.
