I am an energetic professional with over ten years of office administration experience. My ability to learn quickly, self-start, stay organized, multi-task, and work effectively under deadlines are a few reasons why I am a qualified office administrator. Moreover, I possess excellent oral and written communication skills that assist in making decisions and solving problems. I believe in providing good customer service and maintaining good working relationships with others. I always strive to grow professionally through learning from others and assisting fellow employees.
