About
I am a dynamic and customer-focused professional with strong experience in various service-oriented roles. My background includes working as a Customer Support Associate and providing high-quality assistance at companies like Alorica, where I managed high volumes of inquiries via phone, email, and live chat. I am known for my ability to resolve customer issues efficiently and maintain a high satisfaction rate through clear communication and a personalized approach. With a proven track record in hospitality roles at LaQuinta Inn and The Lodge at Deadwood, I excel at anticipating and addressing guest needs to create a welcoming environment. My strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and adaptability make me well-suited for roles that prioritize customer experience and service excellence. I am eager to contribute these skills in a team setting and am passionate about delivering top-tier customer support.
