What I'm looking for

I’m looking for valuation or transaction roles where I can own ASC-compliant reporting valuations, build M&A/DCF models, and use generative-AI automation to speed research and drafting—while keeping every output audit-ready and decision-grade.

I’m a valuation and financial analysis professional with 5 years supporting M&A and investment banking teams across boutique and mid-market banks in the US, UK, and EU. My focus is delivering clear, audit-ready valuation outputs that stand up to scrutiny.

I’ve delivered 25+ financial reporting valuations—ASC 805 purchase price allocations, ASC 718, ASC 350/820 impairment and fair value, and IRC 409A—across 12+ industries. I build M&A, DCF, and transaction models using GPC, GTM, NAV, and SOTP methods, and I ground every assumption in strong comparables and research.

I author deal collaterals end-to-end—CIMs, information memoranda, teasers, pitch decks—and support transaction due diligence with financial spreading, WACC derivation, trading and transaction comparables, and macro-industry overviews. I’m comfortable translating complex financial and operational data into investor-ready narratives with tight turnarounds.

I increasingly apply generative-AI tools and workflow automation to accelerate research, modeling, and document production without compromising audit-ready rigor. I enjoy partnering across deal teams and staying relentlessly structured, so our analyses move faster while remaining defensible.
