What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote bookkeeping, accounting, or finance-support roles for international clients. I bring audit-ready reporting, reconciliation, and compliance confidence, and I’m comfortable working independently across time zones.

I’m a detail-oriented Finance and Audit professional with 3+ years of experience in bookkeeping, financial reporting, reconciliation, and audit across corporate, NGO, and education-sector clients. As an Audit Associate and Audit Team Lead on a dedicated institutional engagement, I provide end-to-end oversight that keeps financial records accurate, audit-ready, and aligned to compliance needs.

I specialize in QuickBooks Online & Desktop and Zoho Books for ongoing bookkeeping, expense tracking, accounts payable/receivable, and financial statement preparation for local and international clients, including a U.S.-based client. I also lead audits and grant-focused reviews—handling donor and grant compliance, internal controls, and budget variance analysis—and I support teams through training (including migrating data from Excel into QuickBooks and coaching in-house finance workflows).
