What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters growth, values teamwork, and challenges my skills.

With over ten years of experience in accounting and finance, I have honed my skills in payroll management, financial reporting, and internal auditing. My journey began as an Accounting Assistant, where I developed a strong foundation in handling financial transactions and bank reconciliations. Over the years, I have taken on more complex roles, including Finance and Administrative Head, where I led financial operations for multiple companies.

My achievements include becoming a QuickBooks Online Certified ProAdvisor and passing various certification exams, which reflect my commitment to professional growth. I have successfully managed payroll accounting for seven countries and have been instrumental in streamlining financial processes, ensuring compliance, and enhancing operational efficiency. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute to organizational success while continuously seeking opportunities for personal and professional development.
