What I'm looking for

I seek a senior reporting role where I can lead SEC filings, strengthen controls, collaborate with legal/IR, and drive process improvements in a transparent, growth-oriented environment.

I am a CPA and seasoned SEC reporting leader with deep experience preparing 10-Ks, 10-Qs, and 8-Ks for large public companies. I have built reporting infrastructure post-IPO, established filing timelines, led disclosure committees in Workiva, and partnered with auditors, legal, and executive leadership to ensure US GAAP compliance and transparent external reporting.

I bring prior Big Four audit experience and hands-on consolidation and REIT reporting skills, including account reconciliations in Yardi, mezzanine loan accounting, SOX control execution, and process improvements that strengthened internal control and accelerated filing readiness.
