What I'm looking for
I am an experienced bookkeeping and administrative professional with over 15 years of expertise in managing financial records, client relations, and business operations. My proficiency in QuickBooks and financial data management has allowed me to bring financial records current and maintain ongoing bookkeeping processes effectively. I pride myself on my ability to handle sensitive information with confidentiality and my proven track record of working independently and collaboratively in remote environments to support business growth.
Throughout my career, I have successfully operated my own business, Bay Ridge Home Services, where I managed all aspects of bookkeeping and client relations. My previous roles at Octapharma USA and Pfizer Inc. further honed my skills in document preparation, expense report processing, and stakeholder coordination. I have developed strong organizational and time management skills, which have been essential in ensuring smooth operations and client satisfaction in various fast-paced environments.
