Accounting Associate at University of South Florida Foundation who managed daily deposits up to $1,000,000.
What I'm looking for
At University of South Florida Foundation, I managed daily deposits of up to $1,000,000, processing cash, checks, credit card payments, and ACH transactions.
I created and audited journal entries, reconciled donor contribution holding accounts, and transferred funds after receiving donor intent documentation. I also reviewed Gift-in-Kind donations and allocated them to the appropriate donor funds.
At GMed, Inc., I managed revenue collection and reconciliation, processed daily deposits, and completed month-end bank reconciliations. I also prepared client billing and generated financial reports.
Earlier, I processed accounts payable and receivable, payroll, timekeeping, and benefits across several organizations. I’m seeking permanent work-from-home employment in accounting, where I can draw on my years of experience.
