What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, encourages innovation, and values collaboration.

I am a finance professional with over 2 years of experience in financial planning and analysis (FP&A), budgeting, and forecasting. My journey has taken me through multinational environments where I have honed my skills in variance analysis, benchmarking KPIs, and financial modeling. I am passionate about using data to drive strategic decisions and have a proven track record in process optimization through automation.

Currently, I work as an EFA Analyst at Deloitte, where I support in-depth analysis of financial performance against budgets and forecasts. I collaborate with leadership to identify financial drivers and trends, develop Excel-based financial models, and ensure compliance with internal financial controls. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my ability to automate reports, reducing manual effort significantly while improving visibility for stakeholders.
