What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging accounting/finance role where I can apply CPA and MBA skills in payroll, tax and compliance; a culture valuing accuracy, process improvement, audit readiness, mentorship and professional growth.

I am a practicing CPA and recent MBA graduate with extensive experience in accounting, payroll, tax and operations. I deliver disciplined financial management, compliance and process improvements across public and private entities.

I have managed end-to-end payroll, tax filing and bank reconciliations while supporting external audits and strengthening internal controls. I am proficient with ERP systems such as QuickBooks and advanced MS Excel techniques to ensure accurate reporting.

My work has produced measurable results: improved payroll accuracy and timeliness (70% reduction in errors), 100% on-time payroll processing, an 80% reduction in payroll errors following system improvements, and contributions to cost reductions and clean audit outcomes.

I bring a practical, compliance-focused approach, strong analytical skills and a commitment to mentoring teams and streamlining financial processes. I seek roles where I can drive accuracy, efficiency and accountability in finance functions.
