What I'm looking for

I seek a senior finance leadership role where I can lead financial operations, strengthen controls, manage budgeting and reporting, mentor teams, and drive strategic planning within a collaborative, compliance-focused organization.

I am a highly motivated accounting and finance professional with extensive experience in financial management, analysis, and reporting. I currently serve as Finance Director at Generational Wealth Educators, overseeing budgeting, financial reporting, cash flow, payroll, and QuickBooks optimization.

Previously I worked as a Financial Analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis supporting credit, payment system risk, and reserves for the Ninth District. I evaluated master account applications, supported Covid-19 loan repayment and the Bank Term Funding Program, and performed daily collateral and loan reconciliations.

Earlier roles at Wells Fargo and U.S. Bank provided deep experience in mortgage underwriting, credit analysis, corporate trust accounting, and large-scale cash reconciliations. I regularly used Excel and Microsoft Access for data analysis and prepared reports to support lending and trust operations.

I hold an MBA with an emphasis in Accounting and a BA in Accounting, and I bring a collaborative, detail-oriented approach to improving financial controls and guiding strategic decisions.
