What I'm looking for
I have over 8 years of experience as a Customer Support Specialist, during which I have honed my ability to resolve complex customer issues and deliver exceptional service across multiple industries, including education, finance, and renewable energy. My career has evolved from providing frontline customer support to leading high-performing teams as a Team Lead. In my current role, I manage a team of customer service representatives, ensuring prompt responses to customer inquiries through channels like phone, email, and live chat.
I have a deep understanding of CRM tools such as Zendesk, HubSpot, and Salesforce, which I use to streamline processes, improve customer interactions, and implement strategies that drive customer retention and satisfaction. My focus has always been on enhancing the overall customer experience by developing solutions that address customer pain points and improve operational efficiency.
I am passionate about leadership and mentoring my team, empowering them to perform at their best and fostering a culture of service excellence. I take pride in helping customers navigate their challenges while ensuring that my team exceeds performance targets.
Beyond my professional career, I am deeply interested in the intersection of technology and customer service, always seeking new ways to innovate and improve the customer experience. I am also enthusiastic about renewable energy solutions and have worked on personal projects related to solar installations.
I look forward to opportunities where I can leverage my experience to contribute to a company’s growth, improve customer experiences, and lead teams to achieve success.
