What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Financial Analyst with hands-on experience in financial modelling, forecasting, and data-driven decision support. I have evaluated financial statements, market trends, and economic indicators to identify risks and opportunities that inform strategic planning.
At Uptown Urgency I prepared forecasts, developed budgeting and cost-analysis models, and delivered comprehensive reports and presentations to senior management. In my prior role at Brisk Marketing I supported budgeting, variance analysis, and investment decision processes while gaining practical experience with reporting tools.
My work has improved forecast accuracy by 10%, supported cost-reduction strategies saving 8% of annual operating expenses, and contributed to investment analysis that produced a 10% ROI. I combine strong corporate finance knowledge with advanced Excel and financial software proficiency.
I am committed to applying rigorous analysis and clear communication to drive profitability and operational efficiency, and to partnering with leadership to deliver measurable financial improvements.
