Summary
I am an organized and dependable candidate who is successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. I have a willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. I respond quickly with acumen in high pressure, high stress situations. I conduct business professionally and with minimal guidance. I work well independently however, I also enjoy being part of a team. I am proficient with a variety of software and database research tools. My former careers have focused on the medical and banking industries so I am well versed in working with confidential communications when dealing with customers and business entities. I am a Paralegal student at Phoenix College and as such have had the opportunity to become familiar with the Az Rules of Civil Procedure, legal terminology, Westlaw and other proprietary database research tools, as well as forms and motions used before, during, and after trial.
