About

Although I studied bookkeeping, I am much happier when it comes to working in the hotel industry, as I am very passionate when it comes to working with people. I am hospitable and friendly. My honesty, friendliness, and loyalty are my invaluable assets.

In 2016, I started doing transcription work from home as a freelancer. I have been doing mainly academic and medical transcription jobs. I also have insurance transcription jobs experience, too, along with general jobs.

I worked myself up to Master Transcriber badge with CastingWords, which is based in the US. Please feel free to confirm with Jennifer Tucker my badge, which an average of 100 percent where you work with 24-hour turnaround jobs to deliver the customer in that timeframe. Therefore, accuracy and speed are of utmost importance.

Due to AI, there has been a significant decrease in the volume of jobs, therefore I am reaching out to a second company to do transcription jobs. I have a foot pedal, Lenovo laptop, stable Wi-Fi, and a good quality headset. I am always available, and I am very hardworking and thorough.
