What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a FinOps role where I can own AWS cost governance, build chargeback/showback and anomaly detection, and partner across teams to deliver measurable savings—grounded in strong compliance, audit readiness, and clear risk-aware forecasts.

I’m a FinOps Analyst with 12+ years of financial analysis under strict banking compliance and governance, turning tax returns, financial statements, and industry data into clear risk and repayment forecasts.

I’m hands-on with AWS cost tooling—Cost Explorer, Cost Anomaly Detection, Pricing Calculator, and Cost and Usage Report (CUR)—and I use SQL and Excel for cost modeling and reporting. I also focus on chargeback/showback, resource right-sizing, and Reserved Instances/Savings Plans to reduce waste and improve visibility.

In my projects, I architected a multi-team cost allocation and tagging governance system using AWS Config, Service Control Policies, and FOCUS 1.2 exports—delivering 100% spend attribution with zero orphaned costs. I also built an AWS cost anomaly detection pipeline with Terraform and Lambda to provision infrastructure and monitor unexpected spend patterns.

Earlier in my career, I was a mortgage and small business underwriter, analyzing qualifying income and financial statements to make sound, audit-ready decisions—decisioning an average of 15 loans per month and contributing to $5M in monthly closed loan revenue. Today, I’m actively building toward enterprise cloud roles through an intensive production-style AWS program while continuing to apply governance-first thinking to FinOps.
