## About

```text
At GRANT THORNTON ADVISORY EA LTD, I record accounting data in Tally, monitor the daily accounting cycle, and prepare monthly management reports. I also perform bank reconciliations, handle statutory filings, and apply IFRS.

At AFRICAN CAPITAL LTD, I prepared payroll, bank reconciliation statements, and monthly sales and recovery reports. I also followed up on client recoveries and supported compliance with statutory payments.

Earlier, I worked in accounting, stock, and shipping documentation roles at WADSWORTH DISTRIBUTORS (T) LTD, SHARAF SHIPPING AGENCY(T) LTD, and AGA KHAN HOSPITAL. I’m currently studying the ACCA Strategic Professional Module and hold a Basic Tally Certificate.
