Remote customer support and account operations

Nearly two years of remote account work at Aidvantage, fixing balance and payment problems on federal student aid accounts and explaining them clearly to stressed borrowers. I also founded Dealer Recon Systems and built the software myself, so I pick up new systems fast and like automating manual work.

Experience

Aidvantage (U.S. Department of Education contractor)

Nov 2024 – present

Customer Service Representative · Federal student aid accounts Remote

  • Handle a steady queue of inbound account calls and resolve balance, disbursement and payment questions myself.
  • Research accounts that don’t reconcile, make the corrections under federal regulations and written policy, and document every case so the next person can see what was done and why.
  • Explain balances and payments in plain language to borrowers who are worried about money, which keeps calls from turning into escalations.
  • Work fully remote against handle-time and quality-assurance targets, handling personally identifiable financial information under federal privacy rules.

Dealer Recon Systems

Feb 2026 – present

Founder · Owner Jacksonville, FL · Remote

  • Founded a software company and built its product myself while working full time: a dealer management platform for car, RV, marine, motorcycle and body shop dealers, about 50,000 lines of code.
  • Taking it to launch: the iOS and Android apps are in App Store and Google Play review, and I manage the vendor and infrastructure accounts behind it.
  • Designed it around how a dealership runs: a seven-stage pipeline with day targets that flags late work on its own.
  • Built the access controls a business with customer records needs: about 40 permissions with per-employee overrides, two-factor login, and an audit log that can restore any earlier version of a record.

Automotive service and collision repair

2019 – 2024

Mechanic · Ford dealership, Greg’s Auto Body Collision Center On site

  • Learned the dealership workflow I later built Dealer Recon Systems around.

Kik

Nov 2017 – Jun 2019

Software Engineer · Contract Remote

  • Closed an Android security hole that let modified builds pass saved photos off as live camera shots, and designed the interface for Kik X, a full redesign of the app.
