What I'm looking for

I'm looking to return to hands-on accounting work where I can solve reconciliation and reporting challenges, improve systems, and use AI and automation to make finance and operations more efficient.

I've managed full-cycle accounting for 50+ business clients at Todd Hammonds CPA, including reconciliations, general ledger work, close processes, financial reporting, payroll for 40+ companies, and tax filings for 100+ clients.

More recently, I owned and operated Reino 22 in Zaragoza, managing profitability, AP, supplier relationships, cash flow, inventory, and daily reconciliations before selling the business profitably in 2025. I'm returning to hands-on accounting because I enjoy solving financial puzzles, improving systems, and using technology and automation to work more efficiently.
