I am a seasoned finance and accounting professional with over 25 years of experience leading full‑cycle accounting, multi‑entity operations, internal controls, and system optimization across private, public, government, and nonprofit environments. My career has been defined by my ability to step into complex, high‑volume, or unclear situations and bring structure, accuracy, and efficiency through strong financial acumen and well‑designed processes.

One of my core strengths is serving as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) during financial system implementations, upgrades, and add‑on integrations. I’ve worked hands‑on with major ERP platforms including Oracle (desktop and Fusion Cloud), SAP, Sage, and Great Plains, supporting everything from initial configuration to troubleshooting and post‑go‑live stabilization. I partnered closely with IT teams to build and validate financial reports, ensure data integrity, resolve system issues, and translate operational needs into technical requirements. I also completed formal training through Oracle University, strengthening my ability to support system design, reporting, and workflow improvements.

I’m known for creating clarity where there is none. I’ve built SOPs, process maps, and accounting procedures from scratch, ensuring teams have consistent, audit‑ready documentation. I’ve trained entire accounting departments on new systems, new policies, and new workflows, making me the go‑to resource for questions, problem‑solving, and cross‑functional communication. My work has directly supported audit readiness, compliance, and smoother month‑end close cycles.

Beyond systems and operations, I bring strong analytical skills in budgeting, reconciliations, financial reporting, and process improvement. I’m currently expanding my technical toolkit with Microsoft certifications in Power BI, Power Query, Power Pivot, and Power Automate, aligning my experience with modern data and automation tools.

Earlier in my career, I passed the AUD and BUS sections of the CPA exam, which strengthened my foundation in audit, controls, and business law — a background that still informs my work today.

At my core, I’m a builder: of systems, of clarity, of efficiency, and of confidence. I thrive in environments that need structure, leadership, and someone who can turn complexity into something clean, functional, and sustainable.
