Finance nerd. Data builder. Reluctant spreadsheet therapist.

The Short Version

I’m an FP&A and analytics professional with 10+ years of experience across financial planning, operations finance, and business analytics. I’ve worked at companies ranging from startups to Fortune 500s, owned P&Ls, led forecast cycles, and built the dashboards and data infrastructure that finance teams actually use.

I’m currently based in Las Vegas and looking for my next full-time role where I can help a finance team work smarter, not harder.

The Longer Version

I started my career in telecommunications, spending eight years working my way from retail sales to a corporate finance role. That’s where I learned Excel inside and out and got my first taste of what FP&A could be.

From there, I moved into leadership and finance roles in hospitality, then into FP&A in the healthcare industry, where I owned the P&L for a $50M product line. Along the way, I kept running into the same problem: finance teams buried in manual work, duct-taped spreadsheets, and data no one fully trusted.

So I started solving it. I built out my technical toolkit — Python for automation, SQL for data infrastructure, Power BI for visualization. I learned how to architect data pipelines and build reporting systems that don’t fall apart. I figured out how to take the messy stuff and turn it into something clean, automated, and useful.

Outside of my day job, I also managed a small portfolio of short-term rental properties for a few years — a handful of units I operated on the side. Even there, I couldn’t help myself: I built automated dashboards to track performance, pricing models to optimize occupancy, and operational workflows that kept everything running without becoming a second job. It’s just how I think.

Now I bring all of that together. I’m not just the finance person who asks IT for a report. I’m the one who builds the report, automates it, and makes sure the data behind it is solid.

How I Work

I ask a lot of questions before I build anything — not because I don’t know the tools, but because the real problem is rarely what people think it is.

What’s the biggest pain point right now? Where is the team spending time that feels like waste? What questions does leadership keep asking that no one can answer quickly? I dig in, understand the actual workflow, and then design a solution that solves the root cause — not just the symptom.

I also leverage automation tools to accelerate execution — but I design the architecture, the logic, and the data models. The thinking is mine; the tools just help me move faster.

Outside of Work

When I’m not neck-deep in data pipelines, I’m probably training my show dog with my wife. We got into it a couple years ago and I didn’t expect to love it as much as I do. There’s something satisfying about the patience and consistency it takes to get a dog to perform at that level.

Turns out the same mindset applies to building good systems: clear communication, repetition, and knowing when to reward progress.

What I’m Looking For

A full-time role where I can make a real impact. I want to join a team that’s tired of spreadsheet chaos — one that’s ready to modernize how they work with data. Whether that’s building dashboards, automating the reporting cycle, cleaning up messy pipelines, or finally creating a single source of truth that leadership can trust.
