Petagaye Bradford
@petagayebradford
Customer-focused support specialist delivering empathetic technical assistance.
What I'm looking for
I am a customer-focused support specialist with extensive experience delivering chat, email, and phone-based service across healthcare, finance, and contact-center environments. I maintain a positive, empathetic, and professional demeanor while resolving product, service, and technical inquiries.
I have a strong track record scheduling and coordinating medical and surgical appointments, verifying insurance, and facilitating provider-patient communication, as well as supporting clinicians with test results and administrative workflows. I contributed to process improvements and took on additional responsibilities to enhance operational efficiency.
My background includes roles in customer call centers, provider relations, scheduling coordination, and data entry leadership, which have honed my multitasking, time-management, and documentation skills. I consistently deliver accurate information, troubleshoot issues, and provide clear feedback to internal stakeholders.
I am passionate about exceeding customer expectations, leveraging technology to improve support experiences, and continuing professional growth through education and certification. I adapt quickly in fast-paced settings and am comfortable diffusing tension and managing complex customer situations.
