I am a dynamic, detail-oriented finance and accounting professional with over seven years of experience in accounting, auditing, financial reporting, and risk management. I specialize in managing financial projects remotely and streamlining processes to deliver accurate, timely results.
In my recent roles I led operational and financial audits across global offices, implemented process improvements that reduced audit durations by 15% and audit discrepancies by 25%, and managed a $5M project fund with 98% reconciliation accuracy. I have delivered tax, VAT and audit services, implemented internal control recommendations, and supported donor and regulatory compliance.
