What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my experience in payroll, compliance, financial administration, and workflow optimization to strengthen efficient, accurate operations.

Previously, I managed office operations at Danbury Senior Living Tallmadge, overseeing hiring, onboarding, payroll processing, employee orientation, invoicing, financial reporting, scheduling, and workflow coordination.

I maintained confidential personnel and payroll records in line with SOX and organizational standards, supported compliance audits with organized digital documentation, and created workflow tracking tools to improve administrative efficiency.

Prior to that, at Summit County Continuum of Care for Homelessness, I prepared financial reports and grant billing in QuickBooks and Excel while supporting executive operations, policy implementation, governance charters, and by-laws.
