• At State Farm I was essentially the face of the company which entailed a pleasant, clear and helpful demeanor toward every customer, assessing their various needs. Due to the complexity of insurance, problem solving was the majority of what I did from day to day, aside from other duties that included answering the phone, taking messages, applying payments, searching for information, scanning, faxing, emailing, etc. Insurance was a growing experience in terms of learning and staying current with the countless and ever changing laws of the business. It required an ability to handle things with delicacy, clarity and confidence to avoid any added tension, miscommunication, or wrongful handling of policies. As of the 1st of June my daughter was born, thus the end of my term at State Farm.

• This particular branch was the second busiest Whole Foods in Los Angeles, right across from The Grove. Surrounded by customers with diverse backgrounds and requests, I learned to assume a pleasant and peaceful manner in the most trying circumstances and to never let negativity or confusion affect me from doing my job to the best of my ability. Due to the fast pace of this store I learned to adapt to its needs, learning quickly and being as efficient as possible.

• As an Administrative Assistant I was required to be tech savvy, learning the latest programs, as well as typing, printing, scanning, faxing, and filing. Basically, other than the everyday, being up to date and in the know was a must. Technicalities aside, working for Southcoast Community Church, which later merged with Newbreak Church, was all about knowing the values that the company held as well as implementing their mission statement in order to truly be an asset. I believe this is true of any company and that in following said mission statement and values I can make myself valuable anywhere I go.
