What I'm looking for

I seek a finance leadership role where I can drive strategy, improve profitability, ensure compliance, and build scalable financial operations in a collaborative company culture.

I am a Certified Public Accountant and co-founder serving as CFO of AK Global Connect, the first business outsourcing company in BARMM. I lead financial strategy, budgeting, reporting, and compliance to support sustainable business growth.

I have hands-on experience preparing accurate financial statements, developing performance dashboards, conducting forecasting and risk assessments, and collaborating with executive teams to define KPIs and improve profitability.

Earlier I gained audit and advisory exposure as an intern at P&A Grant Thornton, where I assisted in audit documentation, financial statement analysis, and risk assessment processes. I communicate effectively in English and Filipino and leverage tools like SAP, Microsoft Office, and G-Suite to deliver results.
