What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and challenges in financial analysis or accounting.

I am a dedicated financial analyst currently working at Paul Hastings LLP, where I manage bank reconciliations for multiple domestic and international accounts. My role involves recording journal entries and optimizing firm finances through collaborative efforts. I also monitor inter-company exchange rates, ensuring accurate financial operations across our global offices.

Previously, I served as an Accounts Payable Specialist at Control Air Enterprises, where I was responsible for account reconciliations and maintaining inventory records for audits. My experience spans various roles in accounting, including positions at QTrade Teas and Herbs and Diamond W Flooring, where I honed my skills in invoice processing, collections, and financial reporting.
