Chris in a few words
I have been working in the field of finance for the past 30 years. I have a wealth of experience in all bookkeeping and finance functions. I decided to branch out and work for myself, confirming my knowledge by qualifying as an AAT Licensed bookkeeper in 2021 and I am continuing to study to shortly become a fully licensed accountant under AAT.
I am an expert in manipulating data either from downloads or direct from SQL tables to produce bespoke interactive Excel spreadsheets and Business Intelligence reporting using packages like Power BI.
