What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role managing payroll and accounting operations in a compliance-focused organization, where I can lead system implementations, mentor teams, and drive process improvements for accuracy and scale.

I am a payroll, accounting and human resources professional with extensive experience leading teams and optimizing processes across government contracting and corporate environments. I have managed multi-state payroll for thousands of employees and subcontractors while ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and regulatory compliance.

I have led multiple system implementations and integrations, including Oracle Cloud ERP, Deltek Costpoint, Jamis (Classic and Prime), At Work e-timecard and ADP Workforce Now, and authored ISO and system documentation. I serve as an SME for timecard and labor costing systems, designed training programs, and have led audits to meet DCAA, CAS, SOX and GAAP standards.

I am committed to confidentiality, continuous learning, and mentoring staff to improve payroll operations, month-end close, and financial reporting. I seek to apply my leadership and systems expertise to drive process improvements and reliable payroll/accounting outcomes for a dynamic organization.
