At FanDuel Sports Network, I led financial planning for more than $1B in annual linear distribution and DTC revenue. I developed a DTC revenue recognition framework across seven platforms that identified approximately $2M in previously unrecognized revenue.

I also advised the CFO and Sales on distributor contract economics, identifying approximately $80M in incremental collectible revenue and helping secure $40M+. At Paramount, I supported financial planning across seven divisions and improved monthly expense review with automated categorization.
