Profile
Accurate books, on-time payments and payroll people can count on.
I'm a bookkeeper and accounts payable specialist based in Saskatoon. At EEE SAL (Elevator Engineering & Equipment) in Beirut, I handled the full accounting cycle for a company moving more than $2 million a year through SAP ERP: vendor invoices, bi-weekly payroll, month-end accruals, reconciliations and the general ledger.
In Saskatoon I earned my QuickBooks Desktop certification with Diamond Learning, and I'm working toward the CPA designation. From September 2024 to March 2026 I worked at the MCC thrift shop in Saskatoon, handling cash, deposits and shop records, including when the manager was away.
I work in English, French and Arabic, so vendors, clients and coworkers can deal with me in the language they're most comfortable with.
Payroll
Payroll that goes out right, every two weeks.
At EEE SAL I calculated pay and prepared payroll cheques on a bi-weekly cycle using accounting software. I also kept the general ledger and did the bank reconciliations, so every payroll run had to agree with the books and the bank.
- Accurate pay. Hours, rates and deductions are checked before a cheque is prepared.
- Recorded properly. Payroll is posted to the general ledger and reconciled at month end.
- Kept confidential. Salary and employee information stays private.
