What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role where I can apply modelling and analysis to improve budgeting, risk controls, and strategic decisions within a collaborative, growth-focused team.

I am a finance-focused professional with hands-on experience in financial analysis, budgeting, and accounting. I build models in Python and Microsoft Excel and create dashboards that guide strategic decisions.

As Finance Manager at the University of Nairobi Student's Consulting Group, I developed a financial model that improved budget allocation and reduced annual expenses by 21%. I also collaborated with executive leadership to identify and mitigate financial risks for student events.

I participated in a Boston Consulting Group case competition where my team conducted market research, built scenario-analysis Excel models, estimated startup setup costs and break-even timing, and produced a recommendations report; our model projected three years to break even and annual returns of 16–28%.

I bring strengths in financial modelling, risk management, and data analysis, and I am committed to applying analytical rigor and practical financial controls to improve operational outcomes.
