Senior Finance leader with expertise installing best-in-class finance operations to drive stronger corporate performance. 

My expertise is in transforming finance functions to improve efficiency and effectiveness. This involves assessing people, process, and product (reporting, analysis, forecasting, and consulting) to rebuild the function and drive operational excellence.

This often involves deploying modern tools and technologies to scale analytics and help executives make faster decisions. However, most finance teams underutilize their current resources and spending too much time on reporting. They struggle to produce actionable analytics to feed their forecast - I help finance teams fix this problem.

Ultimately, my skillset is rooted in turning finance teams into value-added, proactive operations.
