I am a detail-oriented data entry and administrative specialist with extensive experience supporting healthcare billing, laboratory operations, and public health data systems. Over 20 years I have developed strong computer and clerical skills, including high-speed typing (60 wpm), Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook, document imaging, and 10-key proficiency.
I have performed data entry and analytic support for CDC projects (NDGM-EDN/EDN Electronic Disease Notifications), inventoried and maintained biological specimen records and Starlims database content, and supported billing operations with measurable accuracy improvements. My work has included entering immigrant and refugee medical records, tuberculosis and STI test data, and coordinating billing and project tracking for telecom and clinical environments.
I bring proven reliability in high-volume data environments, a history of cross-functional collaboration with lab scientists and program leads to resolve data challenges, and a commitment to maintaining accurate, compliant records to support public health and clinical operations.
