What I'm looking for

I am seeking finance roles where I can lead budgeting, reporting, and process improvement, collaborate with teams, and drive transparent, cost-effective financial management.

I am an accounting and finance professional with over seven years' experience across private and healthcare sectors, focused on accurate record-keeping and transparent financial reporting.

As Principal Accountant at a major teaching hospital, I led financial operations for multiple departments, managed budgets, reconciliations, payroll, tax filings, and coordinated with external auditors to ensure accountability.

I deliver financial analysis and strategic decision support, recommend cost-control measures, and oversee asset management while mentoring junior staff to build efficient finance teams.

I am passionate about improving processes, reducing waste, and producing management-ready reports that drive organizational financial health and compliance.
