Summary

With a steadfast commitment to stewardship and precision in financial analysis and reporting, my daily mission is to ensure compliance and maintain the integrity of financial statements. These statements are crucial for our clients' confidence and our firm's reputation. I excel at creating Budget vs Actual dashboards, analyzing Profit and Loss, and reconciling bank accounts to provide clear insights. Leveraging my expertise in MYOB, Xero, QuickBooks Online, and SAP ERP, I efficiently process payroll, manage invoicing, and facilitate timely month-end and year-end closures. I take pride in mentoring trainees within our team, fostering a culture of continuous learning and meticulousness that upholds auditing standards. As a finance professional, I conduct detailed audits, ensure regulatory compliance, and specialize in financial analysis, risk assessment, and evaluating internal controls. I am a collaborative team player dedicated to delivering accurate results and adapting to changing priorities.
