I manage full-cycle bookkeeping, reconciliations, and year-end accounting for Canadian and North American clients.

I'm currently supporting Canadian and North American corporate clients at a Canadian CPA firm, managing full-cycle bookkeeping, year-end preparation, reconciliations, HST/GST support, and compilation-ready working papers.

Previously at Obox Accounting Solutions, I managed bookkeeping, month-end close, financial statements, accounts payable and receivable, invoicing, payroll support, and historical cleanup work for multiple clients. I also helped organize trial balances and general ledger reviews for year-end engagements.

At ZA & Company, I supported financial statement preparation, tax computations, audit procedures, vouching, working papers, income tax returns, and tax research for local and multinational entities.

I work confidently in remote, deadline-driven environments and use QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage, Excel, and CPA-firm workflows to keep records accurate, organized, and audit-ready.
