Summary

I am a highly adaptable and motivated professional with a passion for learning, problem-solving, and delivering excellence in customer experience. At the age of 14, I moved abroad and successfully integrated into a new cultural and linguistic environment, demonstrating resilience and a strong ability to learn under pressure. Since then, I have cultivated a high level of English proficiency and developed a robust set of interpersonal and analytical skills.

My academic background and professional experiences have equipped me with the ability to communicate effectively across diverse teams and customer profiles. I take pride in being a fast learner with the capacity to absorb new information quickly and apply it efficiently to evolving workplace demands. I am deeply committed to teamwork and collective achievement, consistently prioritizing group success over individual recognition.

My role as a Customer Service Representative at Teleperformance Portugal—working on the Meta project—has allowed me to refine key competencies such as empathy, technical troubleshooting, critical thinking, and multi-channel communication. I believe that my proactive approach, multilingual skills, and eagerness to grow make me a valuable asset in any dynamic and customer-focused work environment.
