What I'm looking for

I am seeking an accounting or audit role where I can apply audit and bookkeeping expertise, contribute to strong internal controls, mentor juniors, and grow toward CPA licensure in a collaborative, client-focused environment.

I am a CPA candidate and audit professional with experience across public accounting firms and private bookkeeping roles, focused on delivering accurate financial reporting and effective internal controls.

At KPMG and Crowe I performed risk assessments, substantive testing, inventory counts, control walkthroughs, and documentation in accordance with GAAP and firm standards, while coaching junior team members and maintaining strong client relationships.

I bring hands-on bookkeeping experience using QuickBooks and ADP, fluency in Armenian, Farsi, and English, and a commitment to clear communication and timely decision-making to support accounting teams and organizational goals.
