At Hills Ranch, I manage day-to-day bookkeeping and financial administration for farming operations, including payroll records, livestock purchases and operating expenditure. I coordinate procurement and payments for farm supplies and services, and monitor operating costs and cash requirements.

At Paratus Consultancy, I provided outsourced bookkeeping and accounting support across a multi-client portfolio that included hospitality, food service and legal services. I handled reconciliations, payroll, accounts payable and receivable, and VAT-related administration; I’m also pursuing an LLB at Emeris and ACCA’s Advanced Diploma in Accounting and Business.
