Summary

I know that my current address states that I live in Colorado - but I will be moving to Holyoke, Massachusetts and can start as soon as June 5th! I already have living arrangements in place, reliable transportation, and I am willing to drive to locations in nearby MA and CT! I love working with patients in a medical field and I have spent the last few years in Pharmacy work making daily phone calls to patients, insurance companies, doctor's offices, and other pharmacies. I have a full understanding of HIPPAA and confidentialities, as well as customer service in a fast-paced environment. I'm quick with technology and can think on my feet once I'm shown the ropes as well as being eager to learn.
