I build AI-enabled FP&A models that turn complex cost, pricing, and operational drivers into faster leadership decisions.
What I'm looking for
At Walmart, I build AI-enabled FP&A capabilities for Last Mile Delivery, automating CPD forecasting and reconciliation from 10–15 hours of manual work per week to roughly 30 seconds.
I redesigned close reporting around driver-based cost-per-delivery attribution, helping leadership separate operational efficiency from pricing and rate pressures. I also established cost-per-unit allocation across deliveries and orders to improve cost-to-serve visibility.
Previously, I owned FP&A for Sam’s Club’s 18-site fulfillment network and led planning for a $500M fixed and variable cost P&L. My driver-based productivity and labor models surfaced the drivers behind a roughly $10M variance and informed AOP actions.
Across National Vision and Asbury Automotive Group, I built forecasts, KPI reporting, revenue analytics, executive presentations, and investment analysis. I enjoy partnering with operations, pricing, product, controllership, and analytics teams to turn complex financial drivers into decision-ready narratives.
