Summary

Proven problem-solver and effective communicator, I've excelled in roles across US Bank and Gregg County Sheriff's Office, enhancing customer satisfaction and compliance. My expertise in CRM software and conflict resolution, coupled with a track record of reducing costs and improving operational efficiency, positions me as a valuable asset. I am able to take difficult subjects, learn them quickly and teach them to others efficiently. My husband and I started a Youth band where we took five teenagers with no music knowledge and taught them various instruments and how to plan a worship service. Additionally, I oversee the planning, construction, and execution of a community event at my church, where the average attendance is over 6,000 local citizens. My willingness to work, learn, and excel allows me to learn and conduct them quickly and without error.
