What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an entry-level audit role.

At SafeIn, I matched purchase and sales tax invoices with quotations, delivery records, and counterparties, resolving discrepancies and preparing reconciled support schedules for two VAT filing cycles. I also organized accounts receivable follow-up, helping shorten the average collection cycle by approximately 20 days.

As an Advisory Intern at Yeji Accounting Corporation, I built five-year revenue scenarios for a smart-factory client and tested projections against audited financial statements. I also co-developed and presented an internal briefing on Korea's statutory audit process, risk assessment, controls, and substantive testing.

I'm studying accounting at George Mason University, where I’ve passed the FAR, REG, and TCP sections of the U.S. CPA Exam. I founded a CPA study group at Mason Korea and am working with faculty to establish the CPA Exam Prep Association at the Fairfax campus.
