Hello! I'm a Budget Coordinator with 13+ years of experience in developing and managing budgets and forecasting, supporting accounting process for month end close and excel at working independently and in teams. I am accountable, ethical, honest, and thorough. My skill set includes understanding accounting concepts with a strong attention to detail, analyzing, interpreting and reviewing statutory laws and ensuring mandated compliance. I enjoy researching and analyzing data to get the full picture of any situation. On many occasions, my boss is amazed at the extent of research I'm willing to do in order to have accurate data for solving complex problems, reconciliations, reporting, etc. My current position gives me the opportunity to work with Federal Grants, manage an entire fund balance, guiding other budget coordinators through month end close, assisting with internal projects as well as collaborate with a team consisting of internal and external associates who all work together to get the job done! Based on the variety of contacts I have, I'm always able to reach out to resolve any situation. For my future, I am looking to expand upon my accounting skills and take on more of a leadership role. Early in my career, I was fortunate enough to have a mentor who saw more potential in me than I saw in myself. I would like to pass along my accounting skills and mentor a new budget coordinator. I want to teach necessary skills and provide them with the tools needed to be successful in solving a simple accounting reconciliation or a complex problem. My other interests include spending time with family, animals, volunteering and travel. I appreciate your time and would love to connect with you!
