Profile Description

Hello,
 
         I'm Upgrade to see actual info Upgrade to see actual info, 25 years old living in the Philippines. I'm a certified Xero advisor & Xero Payroll. I'm proficient in using Xero and  Hubdoc applications including familiarity with the Australian GST, payroll process and tax lodging via Xero.  I got hands on experience from BookSenz / Omega One consultants which is a bookkeeping and BAS/IAS lodging business provider in Australia, while I was employed there. 

        I do have a background understanding of the fundamental principles of bookkeeping and accounting as I took Management Accounting and Financial Management as my two Bachelor's Degrees and additional training and education from taking the intense Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) exams and training from the Pure Bookkeeping System. And I continually hone my skills by persistently learning as much as I can about a topic by reading, watching in depth courses and applying it to solving real world problems. 

        I believe that everything in life is a learning process with many opportunities which are disguised as challenges in need of a series of problem solving. And skills can be cultivated to solve real world problems

       I'm a person who likes to invest in the local and global stock market and enjoy doing extensive investment research to look for undervalued securities. And I also like reading good books.

        Seeking an opportunities where I can provide value, solve problems and learn more in terms of business, bookkeeping and accounting.
