I’m CPA and CBA qualified with more than five years of experience in bookkeeping, accounting support, AP/AR management, reconciliations, invoicing, month-end close, and financial reporting for multiple clients across different industries. I’m ProAdvisor certified in QuickBooks Online and also experienced with Xero, Wave, Sage, Zoho, and other cloud-based accounting systems. I can quickly learn and adapt to different client workflows and maintain organized communication with both internal teams and clients. I have experience managing: * Accounts payable and receivable * Client invoicing and payment tracking * Bank and credit card reconciliations * Month-end close procedures * Financial reporting packages * Workflow coordination and follow-up communication I am highly detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable working independently while maintaining professionalism and confidentiality at all times. I also understand and respect the importance of non-compete and non-solicitation agreements in client-service engagements and would be comfortable working under those terms.
