I am a Master of Science, Accountancy graduate from California State University, Sacramento, with a B.S. in Business Administration (Finance; minor in Risk Management and Insurance), and graduated with Summa Cum Laude (3.9 GPA). My academic training — combined with practical experience — gives me a firm foundation in financial planning, accounting, taxation, and risk management.As a Tax Associate at Aprio, I work in public accounting, preparing and reviewing individual, partnership, and corporate tax returns (Forms 1040, 1065, 1120, and 1120S), supporting tax compliance engagements, assisting with tax planning strategies and client consultations, and ensuring accurate financial reporting and documentation. This role has strengthened my technical tax knowledge, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple deadlines in a fast-paced environment.In parallel, my role as an Area Manager at Amazon equipped me with robust leadership, operations, and data-driven decision-making skills. In that capacity, I managed and motivated teams of 50+, optimized workflows in a high-pace fulfillment environment, used real-time operational data to drive improvements in productivity and efficiency, enforced safety and compliance standards, and collaborated across functions to address logistical and performance challenges.With a completed Master’s in Accountancy, I bring a strong, results-driven background that integrates technical accounting and tax expertise, risk management insight, and operational leadership experience, enabling me to drive strategic financial decisions, enhance organizational performance, and deliver measurable, long-term impact.
