What I'm looking for
I am a highly motivated professional with 6 years of diverse experience in financial services, specializing in accounting, prime brokerage operations, and data analytics. My journey has equipped me with the skills to manage complex financial transactions and prepare individual and business tax returns for clients across various industries. I pride myself on my ability to build strong client relationships and facilitate cross-team communication, delivering effective solutions in fast-paced environments.
Currently, I serve as a Staff Accountant at McMurry & Company, where I prepare tax returns, reconcile financial records, and provide strategic financial analysis. Previously, I worked at Morgan Stanley as an Associate in Prime Brokerage Operations, where I managed disbursements for hedge fund clients and led initiatives to improve service delivery. My analytical mindset, combined with my proficiency in advanced Excel, R, SQL, and web analytics tools, drives my commitment to ongoing professional growth and my desire to transition into a role that leverages data and creative problem-solving.
