Summary
I’m a reliable and detail-driven accounting professional with hands-on experience in accounts payable and receivable, financial reconciliations, and internal audits. Over the past few years, I’ve developed my skills in both the public and private sectors—working with financial institutions like Zenith Bank, top-tier firms like KPMG, and in higher education finance. I’m confident working with ledgers, invoices, and reconciliations, and I enjoy being part of a team that keeps financial operations running smoothly and accurately.
