Dedicated healthcare professional with extensive management and sales experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven healthcare professional with a strong background in management and sales. Currently, I work as a Claims Processor at UnitedHealth Group, where I handle Medicaid claims for Florida. My experience in the insurance industry includes roles as an Insurance Sales Manager and Agency Sales Manager, where I oversaw employees, managed business transactions, and developed marketing strategies to drive sales.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to providing exceptional care and support to individuals facing various challenges. My role as a Recovery Advocate allowed me to advocate for individuals struggling with substance abuse, ensuring their safety and well-being. I have also worked as a Direct Support Professional, where I developed creative engagement methods to encourage positive behavior among adolescents with emotional and behavioral issues.
With a B.S. in Health Services Management, I possess a solid foundation in healthcare operations and management. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which enhances my ability to connect with diverse populations. I am now seeking a remote position that allows me to leverage my skills in healthcare management and sales while contributing to a mission-driven organization.
