What I'm looking for
I am an Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk leader with 10+ years driving finance transformation across shipping, logistics, and technology sectors. I lead global teams, deliver measurable cash-flow improvements, and implement automation to reduce manual effort.
My achievements include transitioning a $50M 3PL receivable portfolio, clearing $25M in past-due balances (reducing aging by 60% and DSO by 50%), and resolving $10M of two-year-old disputes in three months. I have trained 70+ AR professionals and led CoE operations for dispute resolution.
I combine Six Sigma Black Belt process improvement, RPA/UiPath automation, and Agile project leadership to build SOPs, dashboards, and scalable AR operations. I seek roles that let me optimize collections, implement automation, and mentor high-performing finance teams.
