What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance leadership role where I can run multi-entity controllership, strengthen internal controls, and improve close, reporting, and compliance with practical, data-driven models—while building high-performing teams and partnering with executives.

I’m a results-driven Corporate Controller and Finance leader with 16+ years overseeing multi-entity financial operations across the U.S. and Mexico. My Big Four foundation includes Audit Partner experience at Deloitte, giving me a rigorous, controls-first approach to US GAAP, IFRS, NIF reporting and cross-border compliance.

In my current role, I lead $50M+ in annual revenue across 30 legal entities in the restaurant franchise sector. I’ve improved close performance by redesigning intercompany reconciliation workflows, standardized reporting templates, and delivered on-time executive reporting for the first time. I also strengthened fraud detection by identifying and documenting irregular banking transaction patterns, then implementing enhanced transactional controls across locations.

I’m especially proud of raising audit and lender confidence: I standardized accounting policies using COSO-based internal control frameworks (reducing audit findings by ~40%) and achieved 100% debt covenant compliance through real-time DSCR and liquidity monitoring. I guide and develop teams of 25+ across AP, AR, payroll, and compliance, while driving continuous process improvement and automation to keep organizations resilient and execution-ready.
