Customer Support Specialist handling email, live chat, and phone support for e-commerce and service-based businesses. Most customers don't leave because of a delay or a refund request, they leave because of how it's handled, and that's exactly where I focus.
I have over four years of experience supporting customers across healthcare, retail, nonprofit, and remote environments, with strong written and spoken English across email, chat, and phone. Returning customers often asked for me by name, a small thing that told me the support mattered.
What I take off your plate
✔ Responding to customer inquiries across email, live chat, and phone support
✔ Keeping Zendesk, HubSpot, Freshdesk, and customer records accurate and organised
✔ Following up on unresolved issues so customers don't feel forgotten
✔ Handling frustrated customers and complaints with empathy, professionalism, and clear communication
✔ Creating and maintaining SOPs, FAQs, and support documentation that make support easier to manage
✔ Helping deliver consistent customer service that builds trust, satisfaction, and loyalty
Results I've delivered
✔ 99% documentation accuracy across sensitive customer records, built on strong attention to detail
✔ 30% improvement in follow-up efficiency through structured communication processes
✔ Personally requested by returning customers 2–3 times weekly because of consistent, personalised support
✔ Resolved 50–70 customer inquiries monthly in a fast-paced environment, while contributing to repeat business and referrals
I take ownership of the inbox, working independently to organise what's urgent and make sure no customer is left wondering if anyone's listening.
I work best with businesses that don't just want tickets closed, they want customers to walk away still trusting them.

Customer Support & CRM Specialist | HubSpot, Zendesk, Freshdesk
Every lead that goes unanswered, every customer inquiry that slips through the cracks, and every missed follow-up is a potential loss in revenue.
I help SaaS companies, tech startups, and B2B organizations build support systems that improve customer experience, strengthen retention, and protect revenue opportunities.
While many Customer Support Specialists focus solely on resolving tickets, I focus on the entire customer journey—from first contact and onboarding to long-term customer loyalty. My approach combines customer support, CRM management, and lead nurturing to help businesses create seamless customer experiences while ensuring no valuable lead or opportunity is overlooked.
Using HubSpot, Zendesk, Intercom, and Freshdesk, I help businesses streamline customer communication, organize customer data, manage support workflows, and maintain efficient lead management processes.
Through hands-on HubSpot CRM projects, I have organized lead pipelines, created contact management workflows, and implemented lead-tracking processes designed to ensure inquiries are assigned, followed up on promptly, and moved through the appropriate customer journey.
Great customer support is not a cost center—it is a growth function. When customers receive timely support, prospects receive consistent follow-up, and customer data is managed effectively, businesses retain more customers, increase conversions, and grow sustainably.
