What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative role focusing on compliance, internal controls and process improvement where I can lead teams, implement efficiencies and contribute measurable risk reduction and cost savings.

I am an accounting professional with over eight years of experience driving compliance, controls and administrative improvements across financial services and risk assurance environments. At PwC and Guardian Life I led AML/KYC reviews, internal control assistance and process optimization projects that reduced compliance breaches by 20%, cut accounting errors by 53%, improved department efficiency by 35% and produced measurable cost savings.

I combine hands-on accounting and audit principles with practical tools—Oracle ERP Cloud, QuickBooks, advanced Microsoft Excel and Tableau—and I coach and develop teams to raise performance. I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting and Finance, am progressing with ACAMS, and I seek roles where I can strengthen controls, streamline processes and mentor staff to sustain operational excellence.
