About Michael

A finance professional with a passion for numbers, continuous learning and practical business improvement.

I am a highly numerate, focused, self-driven, and motivated professional with a strong willingness to learn and grow. My passion for numbers and their impact on organisational performance has shaped my career across the laundry, hospitality, and education sectors.

My professional experience includes working as an Account Officer in the laundry industry and as an Accountant and Auditor in the hospitality industry, where I developed practical skills in financial reporting, auditing, cost control, and improving operational processes.

Beyond accounting and finance, I am passionate about education and contributing to the development of the younger generation by sharing my knowledge and helping students achieve their academic goals.

I am currently pursuing studies in Project Management through BYU–Pathway Worldwide. I remain committed to continuous learning, expanding my knowledge, and developing new skills that will enable me to make meaningful contributions across different industries.
