Summary

I have been in the customer service industry for 10+ years. In order to maintain positive customer service, I believe that having personality and communication is important. I enjoy being able to communicate and accommodate people the best way I can. In put in certain situations to where I can't do that, I always try to find a solution or compromise to still make the the customer happy. I work very hard and take pride in any job that I do. I am open-minded and am always willing to grow in any position given to me.
