Finance professional with expertise in accounting and process improvement.
What I'm looking for
I am a finance professional with over two years of experience in accounting and process improvement. My journey has equipped me with the skills to manage complex financial data and present insightful variance analyses to executive leadership. Currently, I am pursuing an MBA with a concentration in finance and accounting, which further enhances my analytical capabilities.
In my current role as a Staff Accountant at Empower Brands, I manage full-cycle accounting for two subsidiaries with a combined annual revenue exceeding $25 million. I developed an Excel template that automates CSV uploads to NetSuite, significantly reducing manual input and enhancing accuracy. My previous experience as an Accounts Receivable Specialist involved leading a robotic process automation initiative that saved approximately 20 hours per week in manual data entry.
My educational background includes a Professional MBA from the University of Georgia, where I focus on finance and accounting. I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in History from Centre College, where I was honored with the Founders Scholarship. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in financial systems and data analysis to drive efficiency and informed decision-making in any organization.
