Awarded by several opportunities and responsibilities used to demonstrate leadership, time management, employee relations, critical thinking skills. Intern Experiences- Networked and connected with several employees and other interns. Involved in The Diversity Business Networks which were created to express the differences between the various communities and networks of employees. With the DBN's I had the chance to organize multiple events within the Overland Park, KS & Charlotte, NC offices where my involvement continued through employment. - Created and developed portfolios to assist with initial customer contacts and to strengthen customer relations for both day-to-day claims and catastrophic claims. During Hurricane Irene and the Joplin Tornado, I worked with employees to increase the productivity and level of care provided to over 1,000 claims personally by contacting customers and gathering the necessary information to ensure proper handling of each claim. During non-catastrophic times I organized medical contacts, customer accounts, and claims then guided the customer through the claims process. - Connected the operating parts of the business to each product line Travelers offered and presented to management teams different possible ways to improve functionality.
