United States

Message

At AXON ENTERPRISE, I partnered with Commercial Finance and Sales leadership on operating-expense planning and budget oversight exceeding $100M across 400+ employees. I maintained variance below 3% for two consecutive quarters.

I led annual budgeting, quarterly forecasting, and intra-quarter outlooks for headcount and operating expenses. I also analyzed actuals against budgets and forecasts, explaining spending drivers and outlook impacts to Finance and Sales leadership.

At MITSUBISHI UFJ FINANCIAL GROUP MUFG, I developed financial models and forecasts for corporate functions and delivered P&L reporting. I used Oracle Hyperion for reporting and variance analysis, reviewed Oracle General Ledger activity, and managed SAP Ariba invoicing and approval workflows.
