With two years of hands-on accounting experience, I have successfully managed monthly bank reconciliations, expense tracking, and month-end and year-end reporting tasks, while also assisting with annual audits. My strong academic foundation in auditing and taxation, coupled with my pursuit of a CA designation, ensures a comprehensive understanding of financial principles. I possess solid organizational skills, allowing me to effectively manage multiple responsibilities with extreme attention to detail in deadline-driven environments. Additionally, my confident communication skills have been honed through substantial public speaking and presentation experience. Proficient in using accounting software such as Simply Accounting, CaseWare, Great Plains Dynamics, and Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint), I have a sound knowledge of GAAP, GAAS, IFRS, and GST and PST returns.
