About

I’m a strategic finance leader with a foundation in credit risk and working capital management who has recently pivoted into a Financial Planning & Analysis role. My career began in credit, where I developed a deep understanding of cash flow, risk assessment, customer behavior, and financial discipline. Experience I now actively apply within FP&A as I expand my skill set and perspective. In my current role, I’m leveraging my credit background to influence forecasting, performance analysis, and business decision making while learning the technical and operational nuances of FP&A. This transition allows me to bridge historical risk based insights with forward looking financial planning, bringing a practical, cash focused lens to budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis. Throughout my career, I’ve partnered closely with Treasury, Sales, Legal, and Operations, translating complex financial information into clear insights leaders can act on. I’m known for asking the right questions, challenging assumptions constructively, and connecting data across functions to improve outcomes.
