What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities in finance and operations.

I am an experienced finance professional with over five years in billing, payment collection, and financial operations. My strong background in financial coordination and administrative support has equipped me with the skills necessary to manage billing cycles, process payments, and maintain excellent customer relationships. I have successfully collaborated with clients and suppliers to negotiate payment agreements, ensuring smooth operations and compliance.

At the Town of Lincoln, I managed water billing and accounts receivable, contributing to environmental sustainability efforts that earned municipal recognition. I spearheaded the implementation of the WaterSmart program, significantly reducing high water bill inquiries and enhancing customer satisfaction. My experience in various roles, including accounting assistant and finance clerk, has honed my ability to streamline operations and improve efficiency across departments.
