Motivated individual seeking employment to contribute skills to your company. Despite personal challenges, including the passing of my mother in August 2012 and a subsequent custody battle for my two sisters, I have remained resilient. Additionally, I face permanent back problems from a car accident, which makes physically demanding jobs difficult. Currently, I am seeking a remote position due to my inability to stand for long periods of time because of my back injury and pain from Lupus. Throughout my work history, I have demonstrated reliability and dedication, taking time off only for emergencies. Passionate about continuous learning and adaptability and confident in ability to provide exceptional customer service while maintaining professionalism. Strong focus on efficiency and attention to detail ensures consistent accurate and timely completion of tasks.
