What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my fixed-income valuation, pricing, investment operations, financial analysis, and process-improvement experience in a role focused on accurate controls, complex portfolios, and measurable business outcomes.

I've spent 15+ years improving fixed-income valuation, security pricing, NAV analysis, reconciliation, and investment operations across complex portfolios.

At Guggenheim Partners, I analyzed valuations for government debt, municipals, credit, structured products, and derivatives. I investigated pricing discrepancies, assessed NAV impacts, strengthened fair-value controls, and delivered approximately $30,000 in monthly vendor-pricing cost savings.

At Northern Trust, I led daily quality control for a four-person pricing team and used vendor pricing analysis and SQL data extraction to identify more than $2 million in annual cost savings. I also supported Pricing Committee reviews, staff training, hiring, and valuation governance.

Alongside my investment-operations work, I lead financial and operational analysis for real estate investments at R & S Management Group. I build models, budgets, underwriting, and cash-flow analyses, and helped acquire an asset that increased unit count by 54% and doubled revenue in Q1 2026.
