What I'm looking for
I am an accomplished finance professional with over five years of experience in financial analysis, auditing, and management. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from Johnson & Wales University and have developed expertise in financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, and risk assessment. My career has included key roles such as Royalty Analyst Manager at Sony Music Entertainment, where I led process improvements that enhanced operational efficiency, as well as positions in auditing and financial oversight at Party City and Dave & Buster’s.
I am highly skilled in leveraging technology to drive business decisions, with hands-on experience in Microsoft Excel, Power BI, Tableau, and MS Access. I am also CompTIA A+ certified, which complements my analytical skill set with a strong foundation in IT systems and troubleshooting.
I thrive in roles that allow me to combine analytical rigor with strategic problem-solving, and I am particularly interested in opportunities in financial analysis, business analysis, and actuarial support. I am passionate about collaborating cross-functionally to optimize processes, improve financial performance, and deliver actionable insights.
Outside of work, I enjoy sports, particularly golf and flag football, and I bring the same energy and teamwork mindset from my personal interests into my professional life.
