The role of receptionist / administrative assistant can be one of the most valuable for any organization. I believe my role as a receptionist is to be the first impression of the organization. I take that very seriously and hope to reflect the values your organization holds most dear. Above all, my role as a receptionist is to provide a warm and inviting experience for visitors, guests and my fellow employees as they enter and exit the building. I hope to make a positive and lasting first impression that elicits a good memory of your organization.

When people call the front desk, they can be greeted with a warm, friendly personality that balances being professional with brightening their day. When visitors enter the door, they need to feel welcome and also have confidence that I know how to help them. At the same time, I also have worked in environments where client and patient identity are important to protect. Hopefully, your organization provides any necessary compliance training, so I understand the expectations for your industry.

I also know how to engage visitors by having casual friendly conversations if they express interest in doing so and knowing when to respect the silence when they are focused on the potential meeting with one of the team members.

Learning who does what in the organization also is a high priority, so I can best direct callers and visitors to the people best suited to meet their needs. While I am experienced operating most phone systems, I also bring additional skills including Microsoft Office knowledge and WebEx conferencing systems.

Not only can I provide a professional and friendly attitude, I also have a list of references who can testify on my behalf.
