In Feb 2021 I completed a 20-course bookkeeping certificate program. As an office manager / administrative assistant call me “the fixer”. At two office administrator positions, I inherited a backlog of issues that needed to be straightened out. One involved straightening accounts payable issues with vendors. The other involved ensuring all accounts receivable payments were properly posted before sending out the next month’s bills. As an office manager I have handled AP/AR and payroll (through ADP) I love being on the front line and having the opportunity to truly take ownership of my work. I am committed to seeing the company succeed and to be a driving force in that success. This includes first class customer service to current customers and having potential customers leave with a positive impression. I am dedicated to getting the job done and take personal pride in knowing I’ve met or exceeded goals to help the company thrive. I take the initiative to be a leader, whenever appropriate, and deliver in times of stress, but I am also a team player.My long term dedication to a company is evidenced in the 19 years I spent at The Times of Trenton (1989-2008) in positions of increasing responsibility as a reporter, copy editor, page designer and desktop publisher before accepting a buyout. I was often praised for my technical skills, attention to detail and for being a team player to meet deadlines. Over the ensuing years I have taken advantage of temporary opportunities that have come my way to work as an office manager and have developed a diverse skill set, including: accounts receivable, accounts payable, supply ordering, facilities management, customer service, managing correspondence and the weekly newsletter and project management. My technical expertise includes Microsoft Office, Constant Contact, WordPress, and QuickBooks. I am now looking to build upon my skill sets and enter the medical field as a biller and coder. I have completed training and passed a certification exam.
