What I'm looking for

I seek a role blending strategy and finance where I can lead cross-functional projects, optimize revenue and risk, deliver measurable performance improvements, and grow into senior strategic leadership.

I am a strategy and finance professional with five years of stakeholder management, project management, and financial analysis experience, complemented by three years curating luxury hospitality experiences. I have driven revenue visibility and margin optimization for portfolios exceeding $40M ARR, managed cross-functional teams, and produced actionable performance insights through dashboards and KPI benchmarking.

I deliver process re-engineering, risk mitigation, and client advisory across banking, consulting, and investment contexts, having co-managed investment portfolios, led onboarding efficiency improvements, and supported senior leadership on large-scale engagements. I hold certifications in Scrum (CSM, PSPO) and have experience in management consulting and pro-bono strategic roles.
