What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that allows me to leverage my skills in attention to detail and project management while contributing to team success.

I am an experienced Accounts Payable Manager and Benefits Manager with a proven track record in developing and executing successful processes for full cycle accounts payable and benefit plans. My career spans over two decades, during which I have honed my skills in attention to detail, teamwork, and project management. I am passionate about contributing my expertise to achieve business objectives and drive efficiency within organizations.

In my most recent role as Vice President at J&R Transport, Inc., I led the Accounts Payable department through the full cycle of the A/P process, ensuring accurate reconciliation of bank and credit card statements. I also managed all company benefits, overseeing the research and implementation of plans while maintaining clear communication with employees. My leadership has consistently resulted in improved processes and enhanced employee satisfaction.

Prior to my tenure at J&R Transport, I served as an Office Manager and Physician Credentialing Specialist at Omni Medical Group, where I successfully managed multiple offices and improved patient/customer service. My diverse experience in various healthcare settings has equipped me with a unique perspective on operational efficiency and patient care.
