I’m an accounting professional with over 15 years of experience in the following branches: financial accounting, auditing, managerial accounting, financial planning, and analysis. I have Big 4 Public Accounting experience and have worked primarily for publicly traded companies in industries such as specialty business services, freight & logistics, and medical devices. Recently, I was the Regional Finance Manager for Brightview Holdings, Inc, a commercial landscaping service company focused on two market segments which are maintenance (recurring commercial landscaping services) and development (architecture and installation) for the specialty business industry. In this role, I was responsible for the planning and development of the annual budget and forecasting. Successes included partnering with the regional executive team to provide subject matter expertise, measure key metrics and provide insights to the operational leaders in order to drive desired outcomes. Previous experience includes relevant roles with DB Schenker and Seaboard Marine. Colleagues know me for being an impartial and objective financial analyst who is trusted to identify and expose both problems and opportunities while striking a balance between focusing on the cost model and directly and indirectly contributing to growth. I believe finance must be viewed as a team member, by supporting and executing to achieve the organization’s objectives. I spend a lot of time understanding the business and the audience before suggesting ideas. I’m at my best collaborating with others but can also work well alone.I have a CPA certification and a BA in Accounting from Florida International University. I’m currently freelancing while pursuing new opportunities and can be reached either through this profile or by phone at 305-298-8722.
