With 15+ years in senior finance roles, including Big 4 audit experience at KPMG; I’ve led high-stakes engagements across financial services, investments, healthcare tech, and fast-growth ventures.

✅ Built scalable, investor-ready finance processes for growing businesses.
✅ Simplified complex financial, tax, and risk narratives for board-level clarity.

What sets me apart? I don’t just keep the books, I make sure the numbers drive better strategic decisions. I'm a strong communicator who knows how to influence cross-functionally, from boardrooms to business units.

I'm actively exploring opportunities, ideally with a growth-focused company driving transformation, investment readiness, or regional expansion.
