Message

At CFAO, I lead finance transformation within the automotive entities and manage business control, financial planning, and reporting. I partner with division General Managers to align business goals and translate financial insights into actionable recommendations.

I lead annual budgeting and forecasting, manage the monthly close process, and oversee performance reporting. I also supervised four business controllers across business processes, control, risk management, and reporting.

At United Parcel Service - Supply Chain (UPS-SCS), I supported budgeting, forecasting, profitability analysis, and business partnering. I supported the business in winning a warehousing contract with revenue over $110,000.

Earlier at United Parcel Service (UPS), I worked in finance and brokerage, where I created the Brokerage Unit’s first process flow and proposed a customer billing methodology that increased monthly unit revenue from $12k to $67k. I also helped improve end-of-month timelines from 8 days to 4 days at CFAO.
