Hi, I’m

Boerne,TX
Constance M. Sygitowicz

Summary

With over 20 years of combined experience in administrative assistance, filing, and record keeping, I have a strong foundation in managing various responsibilities. From 2003 to 2008, I successfully led my own mortgage branch, demonstrating my ability to handle complex tasks and deliver exceptional customer service. Throughout my career, I have held multiple contract or temporary positions that have further honed my skills in filing, record-keeping, research, and organization. While homeschooling my young children, I dedicated myself to pursuing a bachelor's degree online part-time from 2015 to 2023. Graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors and a degree in Psychology from Liberty University Online has provided me with a deep understanding of personality and multicultural perspectives, as well as sharpened my written and verbal communication skills. As an outgoing and friendly individual, I thrive in fast-paced environments and am known for my efficiency. With excellent communication skills and a strong commitment to professionalism, I understand the importance of patient and accurate communication while adhering to federal guidelines. I am highly adaptable and eager to learn whatever is necessary to excel in this position. Currently seeking an administrative record-keeping position, I am excited to join an organization that values support, training, rewards diligence, and offers opportunities for advancement.
