What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a return to finance as a CFO or Corporate Treasurer in the U.S.

At Sunnyside Consolidated, LLC, I run day-to-day operations for an accounting services firm serving U.S. Food and Beverage operators. I’m introducing AI-powered process automation while adjusting productivity and quality targets as the technology improves efficiency.

I lead a team of approximately 300 accountants and data processors, and manage foreign exchange cash flows and departmental budgeting. I also create and improve client-specific procedures as the company grows.

At Monarch Casino & Resort, Inc., I managed liquidity and directed draws and paydowns on a $250 million bank loan, reducing interest expense through an early-paydown strategy. My work included cash forecasting, bank relationships, and loan covenant compliance; diligent review of loan documents saved the company more than $4 million.

My finance background also includes SEC reporting, budgeting, risk management, and investor relations. I’m leveraging my operational leadership experience as I seek a return to finance or corporate treasury leadership in the U.S.
