What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and the ability to influence strategic financial decisions.

I am an FP&A Specialist with extensive experience in leading critical financial processes, including forecasting, budgeting, and cash flow management. My expertise lies in translating complex analyses into clear financial messages that influence executive decisions and drive sustainable growth. I have a proven track record in stakeholder engagement and decision-making support, which has enabled me to develop data-driven solutions that enhance organizational performance.

Throughout my career, I have successfully utilized advanced financial modeling techniques using Excel and SQL, resulting in significant cost reductions and improved financial outcomes. My role at Neon Pagamentos allowed me to lead initiatives that achieved a 15% reduction in costs and a 35% increase in financial performance. I am also adept at monitoring and validating managerial P&L through KPIs, ensuring that financial results are accurately presented and understood by senior stakeholders.

With a strong educational background, including an MBA focused on business management, I continuously seek to enhance my skills through certifications from prestigious institutions like Wharton and Harvard. I am passionate about financial storytelling and thrive in dynamic environments where I can influence strategic vision and decision-making.
