Lesley Vega
@lesleyvega
Project Manager with strong budgeting and bookkeeping focus, committed to accurate financial records.
What I'm looking for
I’ve always enjoyed working with numbers, budgeting, and keeping financial records accurate and organized. In my personal time, I’ve helped small business owners balance their books and reconcile accounts, which strengthened my attention to detail and reinforced my passion for bookkeeping.
As a Project Manager, I input payments, reconciled accounts, and monitored project budgets while preparing financial reports to support cost-effectiveness and adherence to guidelines. I also bring hands-on experience from leasing roles, where I managed accounts receivable, monitored delinquent accounts, and coordinated debt recovery—paired with consistent customer service, lease preparation, and maintenance coordination. I’m excited to approach this new career and grow in a bookkeeping role while helping businesses maintain accurate financial records.
