I strengthen public-sector financial controls through government auditing, compliance, and risk-focused recommendations.

I've supported the Commission on Audit in strengthening financial integrity across government agencies, hospitals, and Department of Health projects, including ADB-HEAL 1 and WB-PCERP. My audit work covers inventory, procurement, contract administration, travel activities, and audit observation memoranda.

Previously at EY, I conducted external and offshore audits for multinational clients in Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, and the U.S., with experience in payroll and fixed-asset processes. As a Certified Public Accountant and Juris Doctor graduate, I also lead JGB Accounting, Marketing, and Law Office and build accessible legal and finance resources through The Elite Grind.
