What I'm looking for

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

I am a detail-oriented professional with an Accounting and Payroll Specialist Diploma and have completed the academic requirements for the Payroll Compliance Professional (PCP) designation. My academic training has equipped me with a solid foundation in payroll systems such as QuickBooks and Sage 50, and I am eager to leverage my diverse work experiences to contribute to organizational excellence.

Currently, I work as a Payment Services Specialist at Central 1 Credit Union, where I process and reconcile a high volume of payments daily, ensuring 100% accuracy and supporting audit readiness. My efforts to streamline processes have improved payment inquiry resolution time by 20%, enhancing client satisfaction and operational efficiency. I thrive in high-volume environments and am committed to maintaining strict confidentiality and compliance with internal controls.

With a background in various roles, including Account Transfers Administrator and Junior Accounting & Admin. Assistant, I have honed my skills in data analysis, reporting, and customer service. I am passionate about continuous improvement and innovation, and I look forward to building a long-term career in payroll.
