Areas of Expertise

Reporting & Dashboarding

In sports, the scoreboard tells who is winning and losing. While the scoreboard is valuable, it is does not tell the story of how and why the team is performing the way it does. Answering the how and why enables a team to consistently win.

I design dashboards and provide analytics so businesses can not only see they are winning, but to also understand how & why they are winning. Through dashboarding and implementation of KPI’s, I provide clear, concise visualization of results, as well as the contributing drivers. The saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words” is true. I provide visualizations that allow the data to tell the story.

Financial Analysis

Business leaders rely on recommendations of finance leaders to make important decisions. The finance leader must be able to understand the data, think critically, and translate the data into efficient, profitable, and actionable recommendations, based on the business goals. Whether a company is evaluating headcount, determining which product to sell or how it should be priced, I have a track record of providing financially sound recommendations

Excel Modeling

Whether large, small, or somewhere in the middle, chances are your business is using Excel. It is an effective tool to build reports, analyses, and models. For many it is the most cost-effective way to publish information.

I have many years of experience working in Excel and building models from a blank workbook. This includes building complex forecasts and models, dashboards, reports, and templates. I have experience creating macros, pivot tables and working with other advanced functionality. I can put Excel to use for your company needs.
