Jun 2020 - Aug 2020
Holly Seed LLC was a small business located in the small town of Sheridan, WY primarily focused on beetroot seed processing. Outside of the natural challenges of agriculture, efficiency was the most important focus. ● Supported company operations and tracked financial performance through practicing accounting knowledge and utilizing general accounting principles by collaborating with management to ensure accurate payroll. ● Managed accounting functions like bookkeeping, etc. by applying expertise in cloud-based purchase-to-pay, e-invoicing, and payment processing programs (Comdata, Basware) to maximize the software’s efficiency. ● Evaluated ongoing 4 CAPX projects with the parent company to address critical concerns on replacing aging equipment through evaluating its cost & ROI to ensure company success through long-term efficiency. This role has taught me how to read and interpret contracts and understand the importance of the small details. These skills carried over to new roles and are still being used today. Show less
