I am a Business person with diverse experience, education and credentials in Management, Accounting & Finance, Information Technology, Logistics and Systems Development or process improvements. My Technical, Operational and Managerial success (Fortune 100 companies) at the staff, operational and executive levels are built on a foundation of solid academic credentials in Accounting, Finance, Management and Information Technology. My current goal is to function as an independent business consultant leveraging my skill set to solve business issues and problems at a veritaty of companies. Being a young, continual learner, active empty nester and having retired early from the corporate world, I still have a strong desire to add value and be productive. My success can be tempered toward smaller organizations via the lessons learned from my childhood (family retail store and jobs to pay for college) and entrepreneurial endeavors. I have always been a hands on early adoptor and a busy change agent. I always leverage my cross functional abilities to find solutions to business problems and establishes a lasting infrastructure of processes, policies and controls to insure lasting closure to the issue. An informed analytical, documented and facts based approached is used regardless of the size of problem, issue or project.Specialties: Accounting; Budgeting & Forecasting (Operating & Capital); Process Improvement; Project Management; Operational Analysis & Planning; Strategic Planning; Systems Integration - Interdependencies; Business Control functions; Risk Management; Auditing Financial & IT; Security (Physical, Electronic and Data); Operations-Accounting & Financial - IT & Systems – Management; Financial – Banking – Manufacturing – Transportation - Commercial Construction - Restaurant ManagementEnterprise Systems interdependences and interactions;
