Summary

Hello! My name is Sarah Frisk and I'm a highly-motivated employee with a desire to take on new challenges! I have a strong work ethic, I'm adaptable, and I possess exceptional interpersonal skills. I'm currently a Claims Generalist Associate working out of the Sarasota, Florida office and I would love to grow by applying for the Property Damage Excess and Repo Teams position. I have learned so much about claims, coverage and liability, and

I excell at working effectively unsupervised, and also in a team environment. I love providing suggestions and helping others on my team so that we can all learn from each other.

I am quick at mastering new skills, and I'm devoted to giving every customer a positive and efficient experience with Progressive. I have a talent for effectively addressing concerns and empathetically delivering potentially upsetting news. I believe that honesty is the best policy, even if the news is hard to deliver, or receive.

I have prior experience in law enforcement, which makes me meticulous and effective at collecting and analyzing data used to devise fair and cost-effective settlements. The skills I've developed allow me analyze potential problems quickly so that I can work towards getting them resolved.

Thank you for your time and I can't wait to meet you!
