Bilingual English-Portuguese professional with 10+ years as a Senior Financial Analyst, solid experience in financial modeling and risk assessment and analysis, ownership of payment processing and financial strategies, and public sector and hospital management budget development. I thrive best in positions where I can collaborate with leaders to manage their budgets or financial resource management and develop rolling forecasts. Also, I am known for my excellent communication skills and proven ability to work across all functions and levels of the organization to improve financial results. I have cultivated a multicultural perspective forged through my extensive tenure in financial trading, hospital financial management, and federal payment processing. This diverse experience has equipped me to ensure the accuracy of payment processes, trading strategies, and budgetary operations. Having spearheaded nationwide projects enhancing system proficiency centralized processes and collaborated with cross-functional teams, I've adeptly set, managed, and optimized trading plans and financial strategies. Beyond numbers, I have consistently addressed operational inefficiencies, implementing innovative processes and models to elevate operational standards, ensuring precision in financial disbursements, and fostering stakeholder trust.Throughout my career, I've always been driven by self-awareness, adaptability, and a commitment to continuous learning. As an individual investor, I took a proactive approach, reflecting on my practices and acknowledging areas of improvement. I identified mistakes like overtrading and revenge trades, demonstrating my self-critique capacity. When faced with challenges, I showcased adaptability, revising my approach and emphasizing risk management rather than persisting with ineffective strategies. This shift in strategy highlighted my ability to respond to feedback and prioritize robust risk management protocols.Smart people are always welcome here... LET'S CONNECT!
