Hello, my name is Johnny Leyva. I'm an Accounting graduate from California State University, Dominguez Hills, currently pursuing my CPA license.
About Me
I recently graduated with a degree in Accounting from California State University, Dominguez Hills, and I am now actively pursuing my CPA license. 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 enjoy creating websites and have hands-on experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and Python. I’m especially interested in systems integration, particularly in streamlining financial and accounting tools to improve efficiency. I’ve transitioned into the accounting field, advancing from a security role into an Accounts Receivable position at the same organization. Additionally, I serve remotely as a Financial Assistant to the Vice President at WestCal Academy, a nonprofit organization.
