What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that values integrity and offers opportunities for professional growth.

With ten years of experience as an Accountant and Internal Auditor, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of financial statement preparation and analysis, compliance audits, and risk assessments. My career has been marked by a commitment to enhancing operational efficiency and safeguarding assets while ensuring adherence to laws and regulations.

In my current role as an Internal Auditor at the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties, I have successfully developed risk-based audit plans and conducted thorough evaluations of internal controls and operational processes. My ability to work independently and collaboratively has allowed me to contribute effectively to the development of internal audit policies and methodologies, ensuring high-quality audit outcomes.

My educational background includes a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with a focus on Accounting, along with certifications as a Certified Public Accountant and a Certified Fraud Examiner. I pride myself on my problem-solving skills, adaptability, and professional skepticism, which have been instrumental in my success in the field.
