What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and values compliance and financial integrity.

I am a results-driven finance professional with over 15 years of expertise in full-cycle accounting operations, accounts payable and receivable, and financial reporting. My experience spans across international development and private sector environments, where I have supported complex project operations and ensured compliance with financial regulations.

As a Principal Financial Analyst at DAI Global LLC, I delivered advanced financial analysis and coordinated year-end accruals for multiple portfolios. I have a proven track record of maintaining efficient reimbursement cycles and healthy cash flow, while preparing and reviewing financial reports for global subsidiaries. My role also involved assisting in NICRA calculations and ensuring compliance with internal controls.

Throughout my career, I have managed finance and operational functions, designed complex analyses for project expenses, and acted as the primary point of contact for audits. My technical skills include proficiency in accounting tools such as QuickBooks and Oracle, as well as advanced reporting and analysis using PowerBI and Excel.
