Finance and Payroll professional with 17 years of experience in accounting, payroll operations and financial reporting within an international business environment. Over the last four years I have specialized in payroll administration, working closely with HR to ensure payroll accuracy, labor law compliance and effective support for employees and management. My experience combines Finance, Payroll and HR collaboration with a strong focus on process improvement, internal controls and ERP optimization. I recently participated in the transition from a local ERP to Oracle NetSuite, contributing to system configuration, testing, validation and implementation. I enjoy improving business processes through technology and actively leverage AI tools such as ChatGPT and Claude to enhance research, documentation and operational efficiency. I am particularly interested in Payroll, HR Technology, AI applications in Finance and Payroll, Process Improvement and Digital Transformation.
