What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role where I can apply accounting, tax and analytics skills to improve controls and reporting, support audits, and grow into a strategic finance partner in a collaborative organization.

I am a Certified Public Accountant finalist with hands-on experience in full-cycle accounting, audit support, and tax compliance for diverse clients and institutions. I bring a proactive, detail-oriented approach and strong GAAP/IFRS understanding to ensure accurate reporting and regulatory adherence.

Currently seconded as Senior Accountant to a Nairobi religious institution, I oversee reconciliations, MPESA and bank collections, invoicing, and streamlined payment cycles while improving interdepartmental collaboration. I also serve as Financial Accountant and Auditor at Seal Associate, preparing statutory tax returns and audit documentation.

My technical strengths include QuickBooks, Zoho, advanced Excel, SQL, Power BI and KRA iTax filing, which I use to generate management reports, cash flow forecasts and variance analyses that guide budgeting and tax planning. I consistently identify internal control weaknesses and recommend corrective actions to reduce financial risk.

I am ambitious, adaptable and committed to becoming a strategic finance partner who improves efficiency, supports audit readiness, and enhances transparency. I pursue continuous learning in data analytics, AI and leadership to expand my impact.
