I am a Certified Public Accountant with nearly four years of experience in external auditing. I worked as an Audit Associate at SGV (EY Philippines) for over a year, where I gained experience auditing companies in the power/electric, restaurant, and agricultural industries. My work involved conducting independent reviews of financial statements, assessing accounting practices, evaluating internal controls, managing funding reviews, and verifying tax payments.
I then continued my career at PwC AC Manila, where I was promoted to Senior Audit Analyst. In this role, I audited companies in the media, telecommunications, and infrastructure industries from U.S. engagement. As an external auditor, I was responsible for reviewing internal controls, including SOX compliance audits. Most of the accounts I audited involved IFRS 15 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers), IFRS 9 (Financial Instruments), and IFRS 16 (Leases), in addition to receivables, payables, payroll, cash, expenses, and income.
Additionally, I have one year of experience working at the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), a national government agency in the Philippines. As a Development Management Officer, I focused on agency-provided programs, conducted internal audits, and computed payroll for contractual employees.
To enhance my skills, I attended various training programs on QuickBooks and Xero to familiarize myself with accounting software. I also have experience using AuditBoard and Microsoft Office, both of which I have extensively utilized throughout my career.
