Summary
Accounts Payable Specialist with hands-on experience processing invoices, managing vendor communications, and ensuring accurate and timely payments. I enjoy finding ways to improve processes and take pride in staying organized and paying close attention to detail. I created an Excel tracking tool to help reduce recurring errors and improve workflow efficiency, which was later shared with the Accounts Payable team as a best practice.
