## What I'm looking for

```text
I’m looking for a finance-focused role where I can turn clean, reliable data into clear reporting—supporting audits, improving processes, and partnering cross-functionally to help strategic decisions. I value accuracy, ownership, and measurable efficiency gains.
```

## About

```text
I’m an analytical, detail-oriented finance student transitioning into corporate finance, building my career through inventory management and full-charge bookkeeping. I’m currently pursuing a B.S. in Finance to formally align my education with the impact I deliver on accuracy, controls, and decision-ready reporting.

As an Inventory Analyst, I improve financial accuracy by reconciling physical and system inventory using SAP and supporting regular audits. I maintain standardized inventory documentation for internal controls, troubleshoot discrepancies cross-functionally, and strengthen results through frequent cycle counts and year-end inventory reviews.

I also deliver freelance bookkeeping services for small businesses, including reconciliations, expense tracking, and invoicing. Using QuickBooks Online, WaveApps, and Zoho, I produce financial reports, improve classification quality for cleaner statements and audit readiness, and recommend process improvements that reduce data entry errors and improve client cash flow visibility.
