Profile
I am a trustworthy, highly motivated accounting professional with experience working for both large and small corporations. I have a strong accounts receivable/book keeping background, which helped to develop my persuasive collection style that I use for “challenging” clients. I am recognized as a determined, high-volume producer who does more than required. Due to company layoffs, I’m seeking an organization that values their employees and will allow me to use my gifts/talents to help the company further succeed. Areas of strength include:
SAP, Peachtree, Salesforce
Effective time management skills
Collecting, evaluating & analyzing data
Complex problem solving & conflict resolution
Microsoft Office & Excel
Written and oral communication skills
Positive attitude
Fast learner
