What I'm looking for

I am seeking a full-time role in finance or accounting, with opportunities for growth and leadership.

With over 15 years of experience in accounting, finance, and administration, I am an analytical and accomplished professional. I am fluent in both Portuguese and English, and I possess strong proficiency in financial reporting, reconciliations, data analysis, and general ledger management. My expertise extends to ERP systems such as SAP, Microsiga, QuickBooks, and Sage 100 Contractor, where I have successfully managed financial operations and delivered high-quality results under tight deadlines.

Currently, I serve as the Financial/Accounting/Admin Manager at Sunny Landscaping & Pavers Design LLC, where I oversee the company's ERP system management, accounts payable/receivable, payroll, and bank reconciliations. I also create and analyze financial reports and support the acquisition of SBA loans. My previous roles include bookkeeping for over 50 companies across various sectors, including medical clinics and law offices, which has honed my ability to adapt to diverse financial environments.
