Introduction: Over the last several years, I have dedicated myself to helping small nonprofits maintain and establish efficient accounting practices that lead to accurate financial reports and enhance the quality of information necessary used for critical decisions. I am currently working with the International Society for Performance Improvement where I have developed standard operating procedures for recording transactions and expenses in QuickBooks Online, and overseeing all daily administrative tasks. In my previous role, I served as the Accounting Manager for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF). In addition to having oversight of an operating budget of 10M, I managed and assisted the Office Manager, Cash Receipts/Database Manager and Accounting Assistant. Together, we established cross-departmental partnerships that resulted in increased efficiency and effectiveness, ensured proper segregation of unrestricted and restricted revenue, timely collection of outstanding pledges, and prompt resolution of any discrepancies or variances. I also offer expertise in managing the monthly closing process, providing detailed analysis and feedback and finding and eliminating financial redundancies.
I hold a bachelor's degree in Accounting from Howard University. I am seeking part-time employment and projects with a flexible schedule as I am currently enrolled in the MBA program with a concentration in Finance. I have kept current in the industry and continue to expand my financial knowledge.
