What I'm looking for

I am looking for an accounting role that fosters growth and skill development.

I am a motivated and detail-oriented accounting graduate with a solid understanding of IFRS, FRCN standards, and financial reporting principles. My proficiency in bookkeeping, financial statement analysis, and report preparation is complemented by my growing expertise in QuickBooks and other accounting tools, which support accurate transaction processing and data management.

Throughout my academic journey, I have actively participated in various projects and challenges, such as the CFA equity challenge and ethics challenge, where I collaborated with teams to analyze financial data and prepare comprehensive reports. My volunteering experiences, including serving on the audit committee, have further honed my analytical skills and attention to detail, allowing me to contribute effectively to financial planning and reporting.
