Sacramento, California, United States
I am a Staff Services Management Auditor at CalRecycle, specializing in audits of beverage manufacturers and distributors to ensure compliance, accuracy, and accountability within California’s Beverage Container Recycling Program. In this role, I apply my analytical skills to evaluate financial records, identify risks, and provide recommendations that strengthen fiscal integrity and operational efficiency. Previously, I served as a board member of the CSUS Accounting Society, where I collaborated with peers and faculty to organize professional development events, manage budgets, and expand student-alumni networking opportunities. I also gained practical experience through an internship with Financial Executives International, where I supported initiatives that provided advocacy and education for financial leaders. Beyond accounting, I developed strong customer service and problem-solving skills as a fitness attendant at Union WELL Inc., ensuring safety and positive member experiences in a dynamic environment. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Accounting from California State University–Sacramento, where I maintained strong academic performance and received multiple honors. I am passionate about using my education and professional experiences to support effective financial oversight and contribute to the success of state programs.
