I specialize in supporting US legal entity financial reporting with a strong emphasis on governance, accuracy, and timely delivery across close, review, and reporting cycles.I am recognized for driving process improvements, automation, and system integrations that enhance efficiency, scalability, and transparency. My work includes redesigning reporting workflows, automating manual processes, and partnering closely with technology teams to implement sustainable, control-focused solutions. I also actively contribute to budgeting and forecasting, enabling data-driven planning and improved financial visibility.I collaborate extensively with cross-functional teams across reporting, tax, valuations, and technology, and act as a process and people lead by coordinating deliverables, mentoring team members, and supporting smooth transitions of critical processes.Earlier in my career, I supported US GAAP reporting, accounting and global analytics within the insurance sector, gaining exposure to large-scale reporting environments and analytical decision support. I began my professional journey in forensic audit, where I developed a strong foundation in risk management, investigative analysis, internal controls, and regulatory compliance—experience that continues to shape my structured and risk-aware approach.I bring a strong passion for reporting excellence, automation, budgeting and forecasting, and continuous improvement. Outside of work, I enjoy cycling, reading, exploring automation ideas, and engaging in community initiatives, which help me stay curious, disciplined, and growth-oriented.
