   I help manage daily operations at a family-owned produce business, where I oversee the POS system, handle online orders through platforms like Shopify, ShipStation, and Mailchimp, and coordinate shipping to ensure timely deliveries. I also use QuickBooks to manage invoices, track accounts receivable, and assist with general financial record keeping. In addition, I respond to customer inquiries, help resolve order issues, and support communication efforts to keep everything running smoothly.
