What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values ethics and compliance, offering growth opportunities.

I am a seasoned financial consultant with extensive experience in project financial management, compliance, and grants management. My career spans various roles, including Contract and Claims Specialist at Bridges Real Estate & Construction, where I excel in managing construction claims and ensuring compliance with legal requirements. I have a proven track record of overseeing vendor relations and integrating digital contracting solutions to minimize risks.

Previously, I served as a Consultant Finance Manager at Niras Consulting, where I was responsible for financial reporting and risk assessments for multiple projects. My ability to coordinate workshops and manage grant cycles has been instrumental in driving project success. I am committed to continuous improvement and have led numerous investigations to uphold ethics and compliance standards across organizations.
