What I'm looking for
I’m a Customer Specialist with 15 years of experience enhancing client satisfaction and streamlining service delivery. I bring a proven record of improving outcomes through strong problem-solving, communication, and team management.
In my most recent roles, I handled inquiries, resolved issues, and provided product information to strengthen customer satisfaction and loyalty. I also guided clients on SNAP and Medicaid—processing applications with accurate documentation, maintaining comprehensive case records, and using quality control measures to support timely benefit access.
I’ve led customer service operations as a Customer Service Manager, redesigning call handling protocols and implementing quality monitoring to reduce resolution times. By analyzing call patterns and customer feedback, I optimized team scheduling across multiple time zones and helped drive sustained service improvements.
