A PASSION FOR CUSTOMER SERVICEI demonstrate a dedication to my customers & a passion for providing exemplary customer service. With over 10 years experience in this field, my friendliness & attention to detail are key components in giving my customers the best experience possible. I am adept at prioritizing, multitasking and time management, which increases my team's overall efficiency.A BACKGROUND IN TEACHING / TRAININGIn addition to providing customer care, I'm often called upon to train new employees or demonstrate our systems to clients & potential customers. Most of my interaction is one-on-one training, however I'm also experienced & comfortable with classroom instruction. A STRONG WORK ETHICMy parents raised me to be honest, hardworking & kind. They instilled in me a desire to always do my best. A reason I enjoy my work so much is because I give 100%. Another family character trait I inherited is a sense of humor, which is crutial in battling stress & also aids in diffusing tense situations.A RETURN ON INVESTMENTI've cultivated many new customer relationships that have resulted in increased cash-flow. One of my leads that I handed off to Sales resulted in a contract with Borinquen Metals, which was worth over $400,000. My sales lead for the contract of Packaging Partners netted an amount of approximately $107,500. A BALANCED PERSONAL LIFEFree time is spent enjoying craft & DIY projects. I'm an avid scrapbooker / papercrafter & have made many friends here at Horizon who enjoy attending scrapbook retreats with me. I also play in a jazz brass quintet which can be found many evenings performing at local venues in the Denton, TX area.CONTACT MESince Horizon closed, I am now pursuing new opportunities. I also want to stay in touch with former colleagues & meet new contacts here on LinkedIn. Reach me here on my profile, or at catherine_gilstrap@yahoo.com.
