What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply SaaS finance and cost-accounting expertise, improve data quality in cross-functional teams, and deliver audit-ready financial reporting while growing into broader FP&A or finance ops leadership.

I am a data-focused finance professional with over six years of experience supporting SaaS, financial services, and consulting operations across the U.S., Canada, and the UK. I have deep expertise in cost accounting, financial analysis, AR, revenue recognition, budgeting, forecasting, and balance sheet reconciliations.

I have hands-on experience with SAP finance tools, Advanced Excel, Power BI, Power Query, and lender-facing OEM and vehicle-level financial modeling (rates, residuals, rebates, rule sets). I routinely deliver audit-ready reports and collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Operations, and Finance to improve data quality and streamline processes.

I work effectively in Agile environments, manage Jira backlogs and sprints, and produce process documentation and SOPs. I am driven to produce accurate financial reporting, support system enhancements, and enable data-led decision making for growing organizations.
