United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a payment and financial operations leader with 8+ years of experience scaling refund, funding, and reconciliation workflows across ACH, wire, card, and check. At Carvana, I led Treasury Ops teams supporting $13B+ in annual revenue and partnered cross-functionally to launch automation tools, standardize lienholder data, and reduce error-prone processes.
I built Tableau dashboards that improved third-party funding accuracy by 45%, launched an internal refund ledger system that cut refund speed by 30%, and automated SMS notifications to reduce customer support volume by 10%. I’ve driven AR recovery initiatives, improved title processing accuracy by 90%, and helped restructure funding workflows — including a proposal that reduced time to funding by 65%.
I thrive in environments where I can clean up broken systems, build visibility, and scale ops with speed and precision. Skilled in SQL, Tableau, Excel, Stripe, Salesforce, Jira, and Confluence. Open to remote individual contributor, manager, or contract roles focused on scaling payment operations, reconciliation, or tooling.
