What I'm looking for

I'm seeking accounting, finance, bookkeeping, finance & administration, and operations roles, with a focus on remote opportunities. I am also open to international relocation opportunities where work authorization or visa support is available.

I am an Accounting & Finance professional with 28+ years of experience across NGO, education, and donor-funded organizations. My experience includes bookkeeping, accounts payable and receivable, bank reconciliation, payroll, budgeting, financial reporting, procurement, audit support, logistics, asset management, and administration.

I have also led technical and operational delivery, managed project budgets and contractual outputs, coordinated stakeholder relationships, supervised teams, and supported program development. At Al-Falah Without Walls, I led program operations and team delivery, while at PEACE Balochistan I managed program and financial planning and staff support.

I have hands-on experience with QuickBooks, Peachtree Accounting, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft Office.
