Tax Data Analyst driving payroll tax compliance with data integrity.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own payroll tax data integrity, automate reconciliation workflows, and use Power BI dashboards to prevent errors—thriving in high-volume, compliance-first environments that value operational excellence.

I am a Tax Data Analyst who reviews and validates payroll tax data for enterprise clients across multiple jurisdictions. I proactively resolve tax calculation discrepancies so clients achieve flawless regulatory compliance and maintain superior data accuracy in large-scale payroll systems processing 10,000+ employee records.

With a decade of experience in account reconciliation, project management, and data forecasting, I specialize in streamlining financial processes and establishing strict data integrity. I build dynamic reporting and dashboards to surface data anomalies, out-of-balance root causes, and compliance workstream progress, then drive continuous improvements through automated workflows and large-scale data mapping.

I also bring end-to-end payroll operations experience, including system migrations and full-cycle tax reporting. From reconciling daily, monthly, and quarterly datasets to coordinating cross-system integrations, I ensure operational excellence in high-volume environments while improving resolution turnaround times for complex client tax cases.
