Message

At ANSA Merchant Bank Ltd, I prepare financial reports and the annual corporate plan, including detailed budgets. I also assess the potential financial impact of proposed acquisitions, projects, and capital expenditures.

At Citibank T&T Ltd, I led financial, management, and regulatory reporting and coordinated the finance work for a new General Ledger system. Earlier, I supported external audit engagements at PricewaterhouseCoopers Ltd and helped reduce aged receivables at T&T Stock Exchange Ltd to effectively 0% in any cycle report.
