What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and performance-driven professional with extensive experience in sales, administration, and customer service across retail and HR environments.

I pride myself on my strong verbal communication skills and excellent phone etiquette, which have enabled me to deliver exceptional customer experiences consistently.
