DAY AT WORK

Emails, Teams messages and meetings.  Facilitating the daily, weekly, and monthly financial processes.  My amazing team processes payroll and accounts payable for several Euronet divisions. We also facilitate the global capitalized development process for all of Euronet. Our customer base is primarily international, which can bring interesting challenges. We maintain intercompany relationships with almost 30 other Euronet divisions worldwide.

CAREER EVOLUTION  

I began my career in the private accounting sector working for a staffing company. I also spent some time working in telecommunications as well as public accounting; I have been with Euronet for almost 10 years.

LOVE THE WORK

I love working with data and spreadsheets. I love that accounting is mathematical and logical. I also love the relationships I have built with the people I work with. It is a blessing after so many years in my profession to still enjoy my work and still be able to provide value to an organization. 

ADVICE  

Find something you love to do, do it well. There is great satisfaction in achieving success while working at something you enjoy.  Whatever the tasks are in front you, do the hard thing first.  Then the rest of the tasks will feel like coasting.  Be confident.  Be a team player. Be a leader that leads by example and doing, not just directing and supervising.  Be willing to learn at any stage of your career and utilize your mentors. Be appreciative.
