Summary

From my experience , working in the fast food, retail, health care and client supports industry, I have learnt that helping people is my passion. I am an efficient, organized Recovery administrator with experience in handling complex management software for clinical coverage due to my health care background working as a Podiatrist. I have successfully navigated customer health experience from clinical admission through discharge and billing. Skillfully collaborated with hospital executives and care providers, providing critical patient resources for appointment scheduling, financing and receiving treatment. I am highly adaptable and look forward to taking on a new challenge in working in a non- clinical role.
