At Herbalife International, I coordinated SOX compliance, assessed internal controls, and followed up on audit issues and remediation. I also prepared internal audit reports based on business risks and supported policy and procedure deployment.

Across roles at C&A, Brown Forman, HP Enterprise Services, and other multinational companies, I've worked in internal audit, finance, administration, and control. I hold a CPA qualification and a Master in Controllership, and have used MS Office, Oracle, and basic ACL.
