Japheth M.
Accountant/Bookkeeper
I am a Certified Public Accountant with over 7 years of solid experience in accounting, bookkeeping, financial reporting, audit, and tax compliance. For the past 4 years, I’ve been working closely with US-based clients as an Accountant/Bookkeeper across various industries—real estate, e-commerce, painting and construction, and property management. I specialize in recording and categorizing transactions, managing AP/AR, performing bank and ledger reconciliations, posting journal entries, and delivering accurate financial reports with clear, actionable insights tailored for US accounting standards. Before my US work, I held leadership roles in the Philippines, including Financial Controller and General Accountant at a 5-star hotel and real estate company. There, I led tax compliance, managed monthly and annual closings, and oversaw full-spectrum accounting operations. With a strong background in both US and Philippine accounting practices, I help businesses maintain clean books, ensure compliance, and make smart, data-driven decisions.
