What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an early-career role in accounting or operations where I can apply Excel-based analysis, strengthen internal controls, and support accurate reporting and compliance—while growing with a team that values clear communication and continuous improvement.

I’m an Operations & Accounting Intern who strengthens internal reporting controls through careful review of financial transactions for accuracy and consistency, helping with reconciliations and documentation.

I also build analytical capability by compiling and organizing revenue, expenses, and payroll data in Excel to support internal financial analysis and reporting. Beyond accounting, I’ve taught real estate fundamentals—building and delivering a 6-week program with hands-on case studies and small-group sessions—so I’m comfortable translating complex concepts into clear, practical learning.

In tax-focused work, I’m VITA Tax Certified and prepare and file over 1,500 federal and state returns, using IRS guidelines to ensure accuracy, compliance, and confidentiality while conducting client interviews and communicating results professionally. I bring a client-centered, detail-driven mindset to every project, and I’m energized by opportunities where disciplined analysis and strong communication directly improve business outcomes.
