What I'm looking for

I seek a role leveraging my bilingual medical assistance, case coordination and transcription skills in a patient-centered, process-driven team with opportunities for cross-border casework and mentoring.

I am a multilingual operations coordinator and remote media captioner with extensive experience managing cross-border medical assistance, case coordination, and client-facing operations for international insurers and assistance providers.

I have a proven record of accurate French↔English interpretation and transcription, meticulous attention to detail in captioning and medical documentation, and strong logistical skills arranging medical evacuations, travel, and patient support.

I deliver reliable case management, train colleagues, and volunteer as a Bible literacy teacher, combining empathy, clear communication, and process-driven coordination to support clients through complex healthcare journeys.
