Financial VA | QB Certified | Field Ops Backend Accounting Sync
Laguna
I am Lejie Mae S. Ballesteros, an Intuit QuickBooks Certified Bookkeeper and Accountancy graduate with 500 hours of accounting and auditing internship experience at a CPA firm. I specialize in bridging the gap between daily field operations and backend accounting to maintain absolute data integrity. Known for my numerical precision and strict confidentiality, I earned a 98% work quality and efficiency rating from my supervisors under tight compliance deadlines. My expertise spans full-cycle accounting support, including managing accounts payable and receivable, resolving invoice discrepancies, updating cash disbursement books, and maintaining the Chart of Accounts. I am highly skilled in executing complex bank and credit card reconciliations, and I excel at independently driving ledger clean-up operations by auditing historical records and systematically reclassifying data to fix processing errors. Technically, I combine my deep knowledge of GAAP principles with advanced spreadsheet mastery in MS Excel and Google Sheets, utilizing pivot tables, advanced formulas, and data validation tools to clean raw operational data, eliminate duplicate entries, and transform unorganized data into clear business visibility. What sets me apart from general virtual assistants is my rigorous academic and hands-on background, which includes external fieldwork and administrative site checks. This gives me a unique understanding of how field technician activities connect directly to backend supporting schedules. I operate autonomously under minimal supervision, managing digital archiving systems for compliance documents and ensuring system workflows align perfectly. I am ready to bring structure, clarity, and certified accuracy to your financial workflows.
IT Sabado & Associates, CPA, internship
Feb 2025 to May 2025
During my internship at IT Sabado & Associates, CPA, I managed day-to-day data entry and bookkeeping workflows using QuickBooks Online, maintaining 100% accuracy while categorizing revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities. To ensure smooth month-end closings, I conducted daily bookkeeping reviews, prepared monthly bank reconciliations, and meticulously aligned income spreadsheets with bank deposits. I also actively supported the team by helping generate comprehensive monthly financial reports, working papers, and compliance schedules. One of my proudest achievements was taking ownership of historical data integrity; I spearheaded the clean-up and catch-up workflows for old client records, proactively collaborating with client management via email to systematically reclassify uncategorized items. Additionally, I leveraged my advanced Excel and Google Sheets skills to clean, validate, and eliminate duplicates from raw data, successfully turning messy financial information into clear, organized business visibility.
