What I'm looking for

I am seeking an operations or finance role where I can manage financial workflows, improve processes, maintain accurate records, and support cross-functional teams in a deadline-driven environment.

I am a Navy veteran and operations leader with 5+ years managing invoicing, payments, budget tracking, and account reconciliation across higher education, political campaigns, and startups. I maintain accurate financial records in QuickBooks and Excel and support decision-making through cost analysis and reporting.

In fast-paced environments I manage high-volume vendor and client accounts, coordinate payment methods (ACH, checks, credit cards), and resolve billing inquiries with professional communication. I also organize payment logs and task tracking in Asana and use Google Workspace and project management tools to ensure deadlines and cutoffs are met.

My career highlights include processing large invoice volumes, optimizing workflows to deliver significant savings, overseeing campaign finances for a $1M+ operation, and supporting stakeholder engagement and confidential data management while holding a Secret security clearance.
