What I'm looking for

I seek an accounting role to apply and expand my CPA training, perform reconciliations, reporting and tax compliance, and contribute to collaborative finance teams with clear growth opportunities.

I am a detail-oriented finance professional with a Bachelor of Commerce (Finance), progressing through CPA Sections 3 and 4 and currently pursuing a Master of Commerce. I have over three years' practical experience in accounting, reconciliations, invoicing, tax filing, and financial reporting across corporate and banking environments.

At Lotus Fertility and previous roles I managed company accounts, prepared budgets, facilitated audits, optimized inventory and cash processes, and supported SME lending efforts that contributed to significant loan disbursements. I am proficient in QuickBooks, SAP, Sage and advanced Excel, and I seek to apply my analytical rigor to support efficient financial operations and team collaboration.
