Summary

At The Davis Funeral Home, I thrived as a Funeral Director and Embalmer, expertly coordinating complex services to honor each family's final wishes with precision and care. Proficient in MS Office and AI technologies, I seamlessly integrated new software solutions to enhance operational efficiency.

With a natural ability to console and support grieving families, I provided compassionate guidance, including pre-need funeral planning consultations.

I am seeking a full-time role that offers professional growth while leveraging my strong interpersonal skills, effective time management, and problem-solving expertise. Adaptable and eager to learn, I am committed to contributing to team success, delivering positive outcomes, and advancing organizational goals with dedication and enthusiasm.
