I am a dedicated customer operations specialist with over five years of experience in the BPO and travel industries. My career has evolved from front-desk reception and seasonal email support to managing high-stakes accounts for major financial and travel corporations. Most recently, I specialized in corporate travel management, providing 24/7 crisis intervention and managing complex itineraries. I have also gained significant technical expertise in troubleshooting for global gaming platforms and handling travel documentation. Throughout these roles, I have maintained a strong focus on de-escalating customer concerns and optimizing operational processes. I am now leveraging this diverse professional background to build a long-term career as a Specialized Virtual Assistant.
