I lead financial planning, accounting operations, reporting, and compliance for five timeshare trust associations at Marriott Vacation Worldwide and HCL Tech, managing a combined portfolio exceeding $950 million in revenue. I partner with executive leadership on budgets, forecasts, variance analysis, maintenance fee models, and strategic financial recommendations.

I've reduced the month-end close cycle by 50% through Power Query and advanced Excel automation, improved reconciliation productivity by 60%, and maintained zero external audit findings. I also build Power BI dashboards, strengthen SOX-compliant controls, and mentor accounting professionals.
