Leadership Experience

I have demonstrated leadership skills, no matter the role I take on. It is something that I take seriously, not only for myself but for my team. When I notice a team member need helps or is falling behind, it is second nature for me to assist where I am needed. Having the ability to multitask, be a listening ear when needed and problem solve when things gets escalated or confusion have helped me build my leadership skills along the way.

Communication Skills

Communication is key when it comes to teamwork. In my role as a claim examiner, or any role for that matter, professional communication in verbal or written form is essential to reaching the goal. Being precise, clear, professional, and respectful are all points I remind of myself when approaching a conversation.
