I’m a CPA accountant with 10+ years delivering US GAAP/PFRS reporting, bookkeeping, and compliant ERP close.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) with 10+ years of experience in financial reporting, bookkeeping, and compliance. In my recent role as a contractual accountant for a US-based firm, I handled full-cycle accounting, payroll, and financial statement preparation under GAAP standards.
I’m certified in QuickBooks Online and Xero, with hands-on ERP system administration—covering general ledger management, period-end close, user access control, and segregation of duties. I’ve also built strong fixed asset expertise, including asset capitalization, depreciation runs, and sub-ledger to general ledger reconciliation, while supporting audits with internal controls and reconciliations.
I bring public sector diligence with private sector agility, and I’m known for accuracy, commitment to mentoring staff, and adapting quickly to new software. I’m actively seeking a Senior Accountant role supporting US businesses, either remote or onsite, with the ability to work US hours.
