Leveraging his knowledge with large corporate organizations with multiple locations, entrepreneurial organizations, small businesses as well as private equity environments, he easily pivots from business strategy, operational accounting and finance, and being a business partner with the CEO as well as department leaders to maximize growth and opportunities. He is passionate for building engaging teams as well as focusing on their individual personal growth.
I have success in identifying areas to achieve operational excellence by working closely with business leaders in operations. CEO’s need confidence in the finance team and their deliverables so that they can focus on what they do best – grow the business.
I partner with the CEO and other leaders to assess the current environment and establish the strategy on how to take advantage of their competitive edge. I have created multi-year strategic plans and operating models that provide a guide to leaders to run the business.
Executive teams, owners and lenders need accurate and timely financial reporting that they have confidence in. Cash flow is critical, and the lifeblood of an organization needs to be closely monitored and projected. Establishing Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) simplify analyzing the performance of the organization towards its established goals and providing early insights to where the organization needs to focus its attention. I have extensive experience in establishing that confidence and measurements.
I enjoy working with individuals with differing perspectives and objectives and collaborating to achieve common goals. I am a trusted business partner with CEO’s and establish trusted relationships with financial institutions and board members.
