Hey I am Maria Maria

Senior Bookkeeper | Helping Business Streamline Finances

I am an experienced bookkeeper with a strong, hands-on background in the consumer sector. Throughout my career, I have consistently managed essential day-to-day financial operations-including recording transactions, reconciling accounts, preparing financial reports, and closely monitoring receivables and payables. While advanced Excel has been my primary tool, I have proactively expanded my skill set through recent hands-on training in QuickBooks and Xero. Known for my accuracy, organization, and ability to work seamlessly both independently and in team environments, I am eager to leverage my 20-year foundation to contribute to your company's financial efficiency.
