Accounting and finance professional at Fiscal Ops, managing client bookkeeping and building Ledgerly, a Zoho Books-integrated finance app.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
At Fiscal Ops, I manage bookkeeping for external clients, with financial statements reviewed and signed off by a partnering chartered accountant.
At CinderDev, I developed Ledgerly, a financial management application that integrates with the Zoho Books API to pull live bank transaction data, categorize it, and explain each transaction’s business impact in plain language. I also build AI-assisted software solutions and deliver custom websites for external clients.
I founded and operate several businesses, including Solark Industries, a B2B IT supply company where I maintain an ongoing client relationship with Bidvest for hardware supply and servicing. I also run The Mithril Vault and Branded Supplies.
At Wetback Contracts, I reconciled subcontractor costs by checking billed labour against work performed. I also built an Excel-based investment property underwriting workflow and companion application to assess rental acquisitions under 70% loan-to-value financing scenarios.
