At EJT CPA LLC, I managed full-cycle accounting and fractional CFO advisory for U.S. SMB clients. I led monthly and quarterly closes, prepared financial statements, and used variance analysis to inform client discussions.

At KPMG GDC, I supported U.S. engagement teams on banking audits and served as Team Lead Backup. I handled audit areas from risk assessment through controls testing and substantive procedures, and contributed to a 15% year-over-year increase in audit utilization.

I also trained and mentored junior associates, reviewed audit documentation, and worked with teams across locations. I’m pursuing the Certified Internal Auditor certification and bring experience with U.S. GAAP, financial reporting, and tools including QuickBooks, Ramp, and Power BI.
