What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply regulatory reporting, AP and vendor-management, staff accountant, expertise in collaborative teams, lead transitions, and drive process improvements.

I am a bilingual senior accounting professional with extensive experience in regulatory reporting, accounts payable, vendor management, month-end close, and reconciliations across financial services and corporate environments. I have led transitions, maintained insurance statutory filings, supported derivatives and variable annuity processes, and delivered process improvements while working with ERPs like Oracle, SAP, and Accpac-Sage.

I excel at cross-functional collaboration, vendor onboarding and compliance, and producing accurate financial statements under tight deadlines. My background includes contract and staff roles at financial institutions and multinational corporations, where I trained teams, handled complex reconciliations, and supported LATAM and global stakeholders.
