I have a diverse background in accounting and financial management with many years of my ‘hands on’ work passing certified audits. My experience includes management of growth from $10 million to $55 million in gross revenues and conversely, downsizing and returning a company to profitability and most recently, as Controller for a $250 million Fortune 500 subsidiary, in the recycling and steel industry. My philosophy is to not just report the results, but to interpret the data and communicate ways to improve operations and create positive change. I carry a positive, professional and flexible management style and will do ‘whatever it takes’ to get the job done. I believe in creating a dynamic culture and especially enjoy cultivating the talents within all employees. My focus is to continue to grow as a person, continue in advanced education, and to play a key role in a company by providing timely, accurate financial analysis to management to help achieve the company's strategic objectives.Specialties: Financial statement preparation and anaylysis, communication of results to operations managers.
