What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role with increased responsibility where I can expand technical skills, support audit-ready financials, improve workflows, and collaborate cross-functionally in a growth-oriented company.

I am an accountant with eight years of hands-on experience supporting accurate, dependable financial operations for growing organizations. I take ownership of day-to-day accounting and prioritize clear communication with stakeholders to make financials useful for decision-making.

As the sole accounting resource at my current employer, I manage full-cycle accounting including AP, AR, payroll, general ledger, reconciliations, and month-end close activities. I process high-volume payables and receivables, maintain audit-ready records, and support audits and external reviews with timely schedules and clear explanations.

I focus on improving workflows and internal controls by documenting processes, identifying efficiency opportunities, and collaborating across departments in a hybrid work environment. I ensure compliance with sales and use tax requirements and coordinate with external providers as needed.

I bring a growth mindset and am eager to expand technical skills and take on increased responsibility in my next role, continuing to deliver accurate financial reporting and dependable operational support.
