    I have extensive experience in the legal industry both in a more administrative role and more substantively as a paralegal. I am extremely detail oriented and can easily manage multiple different types of tasks based on your needs. I have investigated opposing parties, performed extensive legal research, maintained and organized large volumes of records, drafted and created matrices to organize information, and communicated with and learned to engage with many different personality types from coworkers to clients to government agency officials. I pride myself on my ability to work independently and proactively, especially in fast-paced, high tension environments. I can learn nearly any new task quickly and work effectively to support the client in any way needed. Lastly, I have been in fitness since a young child and have done various modeling photo shoots for portfolios as well as provided advice regarding health, diet, and fitness over the years. I have experience promoting businesses via social media as well and have helped others build their marketing packages. I’m happy to fit any role I may be needed for.

    I have worked as an Administrative Assistant, and most recently, a Data Collection Associate.. My strongest skills are data entry, filing, and proofreading, though I am open to picking up new skills.. I have been looking for a legitimate work from home opportunity. I have a profile on Freelancer.com, but am going to close that out, because the only two jobs I had through Freelancer, turned out to be scams!! I have no money, and can't afford to be scammed!! Seriously hoping Upwork will connect me with a REAL work at home opportunity!!
