For over 14 years, I have had an exemplary career in Accounts Receivable and Customer Service throughout industries such as advertising, medical distribution, and law enforcement. I was elected to lead a team that was a liaison between our branch office and corporate office to discuss issues in our billing and communication systems. Our suggestions on how to improve a lot of these processes come to fruition. I pride myself on being a very diligent employee with a strong work ethic. I have exemplary problem-solving skills and have implemented corrective processes. My excellent ability to work with any and all personalities and commitment to improving the company's bottom line has been a huge benefit throughout my entire career and I look forward to continued success.
