Summary

I began working for Standard Life in 2007 as a bilingual customer service professional. I then was recruited to the escalation team team. 2 years later I was recruited as a coach for the call center for both Life insurance products and investment products. In 2015, Standard Life was purchased by Manulife. I continued to be a trainer until I was asked to join the not in good order team as a senior case coordinator.
