Professional Profile
As a dedicated and strong leader in credit and collections, I work closely with my team to maintain low DSO numbers and strong customer service ethics. While collections is my area of expertise, I am also detail-oriented, possess strong interpersonal skills, and have excellent written and oral communication skills.
