About Daniel Cournane

I’m a finance student completing my degree with a minor in FinTech, building toward a career in corporate finance and FP & A with a strong focus on how emerging technologies are reshaping the function. Through coursework and applied projects, I’ve developed a solid foundation in financial analysis, budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and performance evaluation. Alongside this, I’ve built experience working with data, automation tools, and machine learning concepts that support smarter, faster financial decision-making. I’m particularly interested in roles where finance partners with operations, strategy, and leadership to translate numbers into actionable insight — and where AI, automation, and data-driven systems can enhance forecasting accuracy, streamline reporting, and unlock new sources of value. My long-term goal is to operate at the intersection of finance and technology, helping organizations modernize the finance function through intelligent systems and process improvement. Always open to connecting with alumni and professionals willing to share their experience. Interests: FP & A, budgeting and forecasting, variance analysis, financial modeling, business analytics, AI in finance, automation, data-driven decision systems.
