What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration and offers opportunities for professional growth in financial systems management.

I am a seasoned EPM Solutions Consultant and OneStream Certified Administrator with over 25 years of experience in bridging business technology and operations. My expertise lies in designing, implementing, and maintaining enterprise financial systems for a diverse range of organizations, from healthcare systems to hospitality chains. I have successfully supported over 900 users and have a proven track record of delivering comprehensive training programs that enhance user proficiency and system adoption.

In my current role at MindStream Analytics, I provide EPM solutions primarily on the OneStream platform, while also leveraging my knowledge of Hyperion HFM and Essbase environments. I execute complex implementations and design customized training curricula for finance users. My previous experience at Sonesta International Hotels and Trinity Health has equipped me with the skills to architect comprehensive financial systems and serve as a technical bridge between finance and IT teams, ensuring seamless issue resolution and system optimization.
