Maria Villanueva

I’m a detail-oriented Accounts Receivable professional who drives full-cycle AR results across multiple business locations. I manage billing, cash applications, collections, and payment processing while keeping financial records accurate and audit-ready. I also support month-end close with reconciliations and AR aging summaries.

In my current role, I process customer payments through online payment, ACH, wire transfer, checks, and credit cards, ensuring each transaction is correctly posted to the general ledger system. I maintain and analyze AR aging reports to support cash flow forecasting and to reduce outstanding receivables. I resolve discrepancies between invoices, payments, and account balances to protect both revenue and reporting integrity.

Collection performance is a standout strength for me—I successfully collected $560,000+ within the first three months. I manage customer accounts to ensure compliance with internal accounting standards and investigate billing disputes, unapplied payments, and account variances. I’m also a primary point of contact for customer questions about invoices, balances, and payment status.

Beyond collections and reconciliation, I handle high-volume administrative and accounting support with strong data verification habits. I prepare and process timecards for multiple business locations and collaborate with internal departments to improve workflow efficiency and reporting accuracy. My professional ethos is simple: consistent accuracy, responsive communication, and measurable results.
