EmblemHealth๐Ÿฆ Senior Accountant
Nov. 2008 - Feb. 2025Greater New York City AreaAt the heart of my role as a Senior Accountant is more than just balancing numbers โ€” it's about driving financial transformation and delivering meaningful insights that steer strategic decisions. From preparing meticulous GAAP-compliant journal entries to reconciling complex financial accounts, I ensure that every figure aligns perfectly with corporate goals and compliance mandates. Managing financials for programs like NYS Dental and Administrative Services Only has taught me the value of accuracy, accountability, and adaptability in a dynamic health insurance landscape. One of my proudest achievements is the automation of key financial processes, a game-changer that saved countless hours of manual effort and improved reporting accuracy. Collaborating with project management teams, I ensure that every dollar spent is tracked, verified, and optimized for value. ๐Ÿ”น ๐๐ซ๐จ๐›๐ฅ๐ž๐ฆ ๐’๐จ๐ฅ๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ ๐š๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐‚๐จ๐ซ๐ž: Whether it's troubleshooting discrepancies in ERP systems like ๐๐ž๐ญ๐’๐ฎ๐ข๐ญ๐ž or streamlining invoice reconciliations in ๐๐ฅ๐š๐ง๐ฏ๐ข๐ž๐ฐ, I thrive on turning challenges into opportunities. ๐Ÿ”น ๐Œ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐จ๐ซ & ๐‚๐จ๐š๐œ๐ก: I've had the privilege of guiding junior accountants, sharing best practices, and building a stronger, more cohesive finance team. ๐Ÿ”น ๐ƒ๐š๐ญ๐š ๐–๐ก๐ข๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ž๐ซ: Crafting financial dashboards using ๐’๐€๐’ ๐„๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ž and ๐„๐ฑ๐œ๐ž๐ฅ to provide leadership with actionable insights for better decision-making.
