About

I am currently a Senior Associate in the assurance practice of Ernst & Young Malta Limited in Msida, Malta under the banking and financial services sector. I also served as a Senior Associate in the Assurance (FSO) practice of SGV & Co. / Ernst & Young Philippines. I joined the firm in November 2013 after placing 7th (nationwide) in the CPA Board Exam in October 2013. I graduated with a degree in Bachelor of Science in Accountancy at the University of the Philippines – Visayas Tacloban College with honorable mention distinction (cum laude). I passed the two-part Certified Management Accounting (CMA) examination in the May-June 2015 testing window and recently obtained the CMA license after qualifying for the experience requirement prescribed by the certifying body. I have over 2 years of in-depth experience in banking and financial services and 1 year experience in the brokerage industry. Currently, I am handling the audit of one of the top five local banks in the Philippines and its brokerage subsidiary.
