What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute my accounting, treasury, reconciliation, and cross-border financial operations experience while continuing to grow my business management and English-language qualifications.

I've supported treasury and accounting operations across Colombia and Costa Rica, improving payment scheduling, reconciliations, reporting, and international financial processes.

At JAS Forwarding de Colombia SAS, I redesigned payment scheduling for transactions up to $150,000, delivered cash flow reports for management, negotiated foreign currency rates, and resolved recurring accounting discrepancies.

At H&S Franquicias, I standardized accounting records and international tax filings, implemented reconciliation controls across store locations, and supported new openings with accurate initial balance records. I'm continuing my Business Management degree while building on my Public Accountant background and bilingual Spanish-English communication.
