Laketa Sherrill
@laketasherrill
I've processed high-volume payments, invoices, claims, reconciliations, and procurement for public and nonprofit organizations.
What I'm looking for
I've supported accounting operations at MADAP, the State of Maryland AIDS Drug Assistance Program, since 2017, processing insurance claims, vendor payments, purchase orders, bank reconciliations, and payment batches. I also audit payment records, resolve outstanding bills, and provide data to management for payment-related issues.
At Dwyer Workplace Development, I processed vendor invoices and employee expenses, verified documentation and contract pricing, handled vendor payments, and assisted with month-end vendor reconciliations and reporting.
Earlier at Mosaic Community Services, I processed up to 500 claims and invoices per week, posted insurance and client payments, audited accounts, managed payment arrangements, and supported 40 doctors and therapists with credentialing paperwork.
I'm looking to bring more than 10 years of bookkeeping, accounts payable, accounts receivable, billing, reconciliation, procurement, and customer-service experience to an accounting team. I hold a Bachelor of Accounting and Certified Maryland Procurement Associate certification.
