## About

```text
I'm an accountant based in Addis Ababa with a Bachelor's degree in Marketing Management from St. Mary's University and over two years of hands-on experience at Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. There I managed daily cash, deposits and account transactions, reconciled accounts, and prepared financial reports while working to strict deadlines and compliance standards.

My core skills are full-cycle accounting, accounts payable and receivable, month-end closing, financial forecasting, and QuickBooks and Excel. I'm known for accuracy, strong analytical thinking and clear communication. Years of direct client interaction taught me how to explain numbers simply and solve problems quickly.

I'm now looking to bring this experience to a remote team. I'm reliable, organized and comfortable working independently across time zones. I'd love to support a growing company with bookkeeping, reconciliations and reporting that you can trust.
