Summary
Senior Debt Collector. I have been collecting since 2006, and consider myself one of the best at what I do.

Highlights
Excellent people skills, experience at any form of talk-off at every level of delinquency. From credit cards to payday loans, returned checks, overdrafts, personal loans, medical bills, repossessions and delinquent mortgages. The only type of debt I've yet to collect on are student loans. Advanced knowledge of just about every skip-trace tool there is (cbc innovis, accurint, TLO, FastData, etc.) and many types of collection software. Fast typer, whiz on the computer and something that can't be measured: One's desire to be the best as what he does, a man who is driven by success and enjoys the perks of success. I put forth an exceptional work ethic to maximize my earning potential.
