What I'm looking for

I seek senior finance or audit leadership roles where I can improve audit quality, implement ERP and financial systems, lead teams, perform valuations and advise on strategic financial decisions in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am a Chartered Accountant with over 10 years of experience planning and performing audits for private, public, governmental and non-governmental entities, with expert knowledge of globally accepted auditing standards.

As Managing Partner since July 2024, I review and finalize audit reports, manage firm resources and lead quality-control and valuation engagements. I co-founded an investment company and serve as CFO/partner for an aquaponics enterprise where I built finance systems and accounting software.

I progressed from audit trainee to Audit Manager over ten years, leading teams of 30+ in audit planning and delivery and overseeing ERP migration validation from Ramco to SAP ECC6. I also handled payroll for 20+ companies and complex tax and valuation assignments.

I bring strong technical skills in Excel, ERP implementation, database design, IFRS application, business valuation and financial systems development, and I thrive delivering results under pressure.
