What I'm looking for

I seek a hybrid or relocating accounting/financial analysis role where I can use SQL, Alteryx, and Python to improve reporting, credit risk assessment, and operational efficiency.

I am a Master of Accountancy candidate with seven years of financial operations and accounting experience, including roles as a Senior Staff Accountant and Accounting Consultant. I specialize in financial reporting, monthly close, reconciliations, and credit evaluation.

Technically fluent in Alteryx (certified), SQL, Python, Excel (VLOOKUP, PivotTables) and QuickBooks, I have applied these tools to build a 20-year panel dataset using WRDS (Compustat & CRSP), run predictive models, and perform DCF valuation and panel regressions in capstone projects. I also supported Six Sigma initiatives and implemented cost-saving measures while reconciling vendor and AR accounts.

I take a data-driven, controls-focused approach to accounting and risk assessment, and I am committed to improving reporting accuracy and operational efficiency. I am open to hybrid or relocating roles where I can apply my analytical and technical skills to drive measurable results.
