I thrive in fast-paced environments, adeptly managing multiple responsibilities while ensuring that deadlines are met and high-quality service is delivered.
In my recent role as a Virtual Assistant at Children’s Choice Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, I facilitated communication between patients and the dental practice, utilizing various platforms such as calls, SMS, and email. My responsibilities included documentation, data entry, and customer support, where I also took the initiative to train new recruits. My experience in managing operations and fiscal health at 20FOUR7VA has further equipped me with the skills necessary to set objectives, assess development needs, and ensure compliance with company policies.
