What I'm looking for

I seek a senior FP&A or finance transformation role where I can lead revenue planning, integrate data science with finance, mentor teams, and influence strategic decisions in a collaborative, growth-oriented company.

I am an innovative finance leader with deep experience in FP&A, revenue planning, and finance analytics, advising executive leadership, investor relations, and boards. I build and manage global revenue and P&L models that support short- and long-range forecasts and strategic decision-making.

At Indeed, I led global FP&A strategy and owned financial models, monthly forecasts, annual planning, and five-year long-range plans while partnering closely with Product Strategy, GTM Sales, Marketing, and Operations. I regularly advised the SVP Finance, executive team, and board with reporting, guidance, and scenario analysis.

I have deployed data science and machine learning into finance—replacing spreadsheet models to reduce the revenue forecast cycle and FTE footprint by 75%—and I championed organization-wide AI upskilling within finance. I also served as Finance Product Owner for a Global Revenue Data Mart, collaborating with BI and Data Engineering on data pipelines and analytics.

My background spans SaaS, subscription, eCommerce, and large-scale asset portfolio finance, with experience leading and mentoring high-performing finance and technical analyst teams, driving integration efforts, GAAP P&L reporting, and capital project valuation and approvals.
