Customer Service Specialist

An award-winning Senior Customer Service Representative with 12+ years of experience. Helping hospitality companies create amazing customer experiences that drive 7-figures in annual growth.

I help content creators on LinkedIn by leaving value-driven comments.

My first job was working as a Janitor at the Greater Allen Cathedral of New York in June 2006. I enjoyed learning how to serve people, do a job, and learn about its mission.

I volunteer to serve Thanksgiving food, Christmas Gifts and attend church conferences.

Those experiences translated to my first full-time job, working at a casino in October 2011.

Out of over 1,000+ employees with no phone experience, I became the first-ever Employee of the Month in the Call Center for Outstanding Customer Service.

My former manager wrote in 2015:

"His dedication to excellence and delivering above and beyond what is required makes him a solid addition to any organization." - Elba Batista, Former Customer Relations Manager at Resorts World Casino New York City.

Working in hospitality taught me how to be patient, empathetic, and caring.

My goal is to become a Customer Success Associate at a hospitality tech startup in New York, NY. Here are three reasons why:

1) To start, I want to make a career change that I will be happy with for a long time.

2) Throughout my career, I’ve become an expert at uncovering people’s desired outcomes to help create amazing customer experiences.

3) You get my skills and relevant customer experience to bring a hospitality tech startup in New York, NY.

Why a hospitality startup? To bring insights from working in hotels.

I create content on LinkedIn that focuses on personal branding, adding value, and sharing webinar takeaways. I like to visit Farmer's Markets in New York.
