Hello, my name is Johnny Leyva. I'm an aspiring Accountant, pursuing a Bachelors Degree at California State University Dominguez Hills.
About Me
I am actively pursuing a degree in Accounting at California State University, Dominguez Hills, with an anticipated graduation in June 2025, and I look forward to pursuing my CPA after graduation. I am proficient in Excel, NetSuite, Oracle, Word, Access, PowerPoint, and Outlook; with extensive experience in file management using OneDrive, Dropbox, and Google Drive.
I love creating websites and have worked with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Python, Linux systems, and virtual machines. My professional background includes over six months in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable, where I manage financial data and invoices with Excel. Additionally, I have over three years of experience as a security guard at the Los Angeles Cruise Center. I've now transitioned from security to Accounting, managing Accounts Receivable at my former employer while simultaneously working an Accounting internship at WestCal Academy.
