What I'm looking for

I seek remote/customer-facing roles where I can use CRM and sales skills, support teams, and grow into leadership while delivering excellent service.

I am an experienced customer service professional and virtual assistant with seven years in BPO roles and additional experience as an online English tutor. I have worked across telecom, chat, voice, and virtual reception environments, consistently delivering empathetic, professional support and driving client satisfaction.

My background includes sales-focused roles—cold calling, lead qualification, and upselling—using CRMs like HubSpot to manage leads, track interactions, and personalize outreach. I have trained and supported teams as a product specialist and team lead, improving performance and service quality.

I am proficient with a broad set of digital tools and platforms, adapt quickly to new systems, and bring strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills to remote customer-facing and virtual assistant roles.
