What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role in a mission-driven organization where I can strengthen controls, support donor compliance, lead budgeting/forecasting, and improve financial systems for program impact.

I am a finance and compliance professional with over five years of progressive experience across NGOs and private sector roles, focused on internal controls, financial reporting, taxation, and donor compliance.

I manage day-to-day financial operations including AP/AR, payroll, bank reconciliations, month-end closings, and treasury functions using SUN, Agresso ERP, SAP and other systems to ensure accurate and timely reporting.

I have led compliance reviews and audit preparations for USAID-funded programs, coordinated donor and statutory audits, and implemented internal control improvements that strengthened transparency and readiness.

I bring strengths in budgeting and forecasting, proposal development, tax remittances, payroll management, and cross-functional collaboration, and I seek roles where I can drive financial integrity and optimize systems for better solvency and program delivery.
