Summary

With 9 years of customer service experience, I possess strong attention to detail and organizational skills necessary for delivering exceptional service. Throughout my career in the service industry, including a 2-year tenure at a team-based restaurant, I have honed communication skills and embraced the importance of teamwork. At Bath & Body Works, I utilized social skills to create a welcoming environment for customers. Through active listening, I understood their needs and recommended the best products based on our conversation. While working at the Washington University Ophthalmology Department, I attentively listened to patients' eye concerns and efficiently determined appropriate doctor referrals.
