Auto damage appraiser specializing in accurate estimates, quality inspections, claims resolution.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Auto Damage Appraiser with 20 years of experience performing vehicle inspections, writing accurate estimates, and resolving claims across multiple manufacturers and environments. I focus on meeting productivity and quality metrics while keeping communication clear and timely for customers, repair facilities, and internal teams.
In my current role at CURE Auto Insurance, I review vehicle damage photos, estimates, and documentation to determine claim value and repair accuracy. I prepare, audit, and finalize auto damage appraisals using CCC ONE, manage claims workflow with CCC Portal, and evaluate total loss claims through phone and digital negotiations.
Previously, I supported high-volume damage appraisal work at Jack Cooper Transport, performing inspections for GM, Chrysler, Toyota, and Alfa Romeo vehicles at dealerships and auction sites. I maintained quality across all weather conditions, identified prior damage versus newly repaired damage, averaged 10+ vehicle appraisals per day, and trained new employees on inspection standards and company software.
Earlier at SGS North America, I completed 2,700+ annual quality inspections and damage appraisals for new and used vehicles, including salvage inspections from auctions and eBay accounts. I also served as a Quality Trainer—delivering training and demonstrations for Volkswagen of America employees and conducting independent audits for Bosch Collision Shops—while staying fully compliant with Mitchell Manual Collision Estimates, CCC ONE, and Audatex.
