Monique Wakefield
@moniquewakefield
Finance and full-stack engineer-in-training specializing in accounts payable and data-driven web apps.
What I'm looking for
I’m a finance and accounting professional with accounts payable and banking experience, now building my next chapter through full-stack software engineering training. I enjoy bridging business operations and technology to improve processes and support end users.
In my recent work as a Direct Support Professional, I maintained accurate digital records, ensured strong data entry, and adapted quickly to different software and communication tools across multiple care sites. I also provided support to IDD clients with limited supervision in multiple homes.
Earlier, I combined technical problem-solving with customer and stakeholder communication as a Keyholder/Lead at Verizon, resolving complex technical, accounting, and billing issues and translating technical information for nontechnical users. At Chase Bank, I processed and balanced high-volume transactions while following banking compliance and internal-control requirements.
I also bring hands-on systems experience from managing accounts payable for 13 store locations at Texas Book Company—processing vendor invoices, issuing payments, resolving discrepancies, and balancing the general ledger through year-end close. In addition to my work background, I’ve built and deployed full-stack web applications using MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js, including REST APIs, authentication systems, and data-driven dashboards.
