What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role in a dynamic environment that fosters growth and innovation.

I am a seasoned finance leader with extensive experience in financial planning and analysis (FP&A), accounting, and financial analytics. My career has been marked by a strong ability to navigate complex environments and build high-performing teams that drive strategic initiatives. At BetMGM, I have successfully led the FP&A activities for a rapidly growing digital sports betting company, contributing to a remarkable increase in annual revenues from less than $50M in 2019 to over $2B projected in 2024.

Throughout my career, I have partnered with key stakeholders to align business operations with financial objectives, ensuring optimal resource allocation and effective risk management. My previous roles at Ladbrokes Coral and PwC have equipped me with a robust skill set in financial modeling, reporting, and strategic analysis across various industries. I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights to inform decision-making and drive business success.
