What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a senior finance leadership role- preferably CFO/COO/Strategy- in a growth-stage or scaling technology company (SaaS, cybersecurity, fintech, or enterprise software). Ideally, the role will allow me to partner closely with the CEO, executive team, and investors to drive strategic growth, optimize financial performance, and support operational scale.

I am an innovative and data-driven CFO with nearly two decades of experience leading financial strategy, operations, and transformation in global B2B tech organizations. My proven success in M&A, fundraising, restructuring, and scaling SaaS models has allowed me to partner deeply with CEOs, boards, and VCs to drive growth, optimize capital, and align finance with business goals.

Throughout my career, I have successfully prepared two companies for M&A as CFO, leading to successful exits. My extensive experience spans across the SaaS, software, and technology sectors, where I have consistently aimed to innovate and drive transformation in financial and business strategy. I believe everything is measurable, laying the foundation to quantify and measure all relevant aspects of financial performance.
