What I'm looking for

I seek an accounting role where I can apply financial reporting, internal controls and tax compliance skills within an ethical, growth-oriented team offering challenges and CPA progression.

I am a diligent, fast-learning accountant with a Bachelor of Economics and progressive CPA qualifications (CPA Part One 2015; CPA Intermediate 2024; CPA Advanced ongoing 2025), committed to accuracy, integrity and professional growth.

I have practical experience across microfinance, corporate and client services — leading loan verification and disbursement, budgeting and cash flow projections, preparing financial statements, conducting internal audits and maintaining general ledgers and reconciliations.

I bring strong technical ability in QuickBooks, Advanced Excel, Sage and Zoho, plus IFRS knowledge and internal controls design; I work well independently and collaboratively to deliver timely statutory filings and improve financial processes.
