Summary
My name is Jacqulyn but I prefer to go by Jackie. I specialize in Sales, Customer Service, Remote/Tech work, and Mental Health! I also have experience as a cashier, host, stocker, etc., in the food and retail industry. I was born in Riverdale, GA but my family is from Panamá, so I come from a mixed heritage and am bilingual due to this. Upon graduating high school, I began my studies at the University of West Georgia, obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Clinical Child Psychology. I am finishing my degree virtually at this time as I have now relocated to the Newnan/Senoia, GA area. I aim to seek great opportunities best suited for me with like-minded individuals whom I am able to grow with during my indefinite time here. I am to seek and maintain a full-time position that offers professional challenges utilizing interpersonal skills, excellent time management and problem-solving skills. Detail-oriented team player with strong organizational skills. I also have the ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy. Thank you for reading!
