Summary
I am a fast learner who adapts quickly to new roles and opportunities. Since finishing school, I have been working for two companies under the same CEO, effectively gaining continuous experience within a single business environment. This has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of company operations and financial administration.

My experience in the financial sector has strengthened my attention to detail, accuracy, and resilience. I take pride in being trustworthy and reliable, always striving to contribute positively to the organization's success.
