Detail-oriented financial controller with 8+ years of accounting experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a trusted and detail-oriented accountant with over 8 years of hands-on experience in managing full-cycle accounting, financial reporting, and process automation. My journey began with a Bachelor of Accounting from Brock University, where I developed a strong foundation in financial principles. I have a proven ability to take ownership of year-end close, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, reconciliations, and financial reporting.
In my recent role as an Accountant & Bookkeeper, I digitized financial workflows using QuickBooks and automation tools, which cut bookkeeping time by 30% and enabled real-time reporting. I successfully revamped accounts receivable processes using Stripe integrations, reducing payment delays by 40%. My experience also includes managing tax compliance for various corporate entities and guiding startups through incorporation processes.
As the Owner/Operator of a retail chain, I managed all financial operations, saving over $40K annually by resolving CRA disputes and optimizing GST/HST processes. I am passionate about leveraging technology to enhance financial operations and drive strategic decision-making.
