Adding value and striving for better results thru continuous improvement are both my passion and my expertise. Developing and implementing finance and accounting systems, processes, and controls for increasing productivity, cutting costs, maximizing efficiency, and enhancing reporting accuracy are also passions of mine. Over my career, I have consistently demonstrated the ability to grow enterprise value out of the most difficult and challenging situations. This includes turning around underperforming financial operations. Over my career, I have served in CFO and Controllership roles with multiple businesses across different industries, including those in both stable and financially stressed environments. I have worked with large (international), medium, and small enterprises. During this time, not only have I continually honed my skills in finance and administration, strategic business planning, and IT implementation, I have also proven myself as a highly effective team builder and leader who motivates, inspires, instills shared vision, and empowers people for growth and success.
