What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that utilizes my financial and management expertise to drive growth and improvement in an organization.

As a seasoned financial executive, I bring a wealth of experience in accounting, auditing, and financial management. With a strong background in risk assessment, taxation, research, and compliance, I have worked with various organizations, including start-ups, to drive growth and improvement. My expertise in public administration, critical thinking, and ethics has enabled me to make informed decisions and provide guidance to business units.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to collaborate with management to ensure an integrated risk and compliance management approach. I have also developed and implemented corrective action plans to remediate compliance risks and built strong alliances inside and outside organizations to positively influence the identification and resolution of significant risks and opportunities.

With a strong educational background, including an MBA in Accounting from Almeda University and a BSc. in Accounting from Upper Iowa University, I am well-equipped to provide financial and management consulting services to organizations seeking to improve their operations and achieve their goals.
