Experienced Financial Leadership — Working Directly With You
How I Work
My approach is practical and hands-on. I don’t operate as a distant advisor — I work directly with clients and stay closely involved in the details.
Depending on the situation, that may include:
Owning month-end close and financial reporting
Cleaning up and stabilizing accounting records
Improving cash flow visibility and forecasting
Building budgets, financial models, and executive reporting
Designing and implementing internal controls
Supporting lenders, investors, and external auditors
My goal is always the same: provide clear, dependable financial information that leadership can trust and act on.
I’m a CPA and finance leader with over 16 years of experience helping businesses gain clarity, control, and confidence in their financials.
I work with founders, business owners, and leadership teams who need experienced CFO or Controller support but don’t yet need — or want — a full-time hire. My role is to step in, take ownership of the finance function, and provide clear, reliable information that supports sound decision-making.
Over the course of my career, I’ve worked with companies across a wide range of industries and business models, with a particular emphasis on manufacturing, construction, retail, and professional services.
I began my career in public accounting, where I worked in audit and developed a strong foundation in GAAP, financial reporting, and internal controls. I later moved into industry and consulting roles, serving as a Controller and CFO for small to mid-sized businesses.
Over the past decade, I’ve worked primarily in a fractional capacity, helping companies strengthen their financial operations without the overhead of a full-time executive. This model allows clients to get senior-level experience, flexibility, and focus — exactly where and when it’s needed.
Who I Work With
I typically work with:
Small to mid-sized companies without in-house CFO leadership
Organizations experiencing growth, complexity, or transition
Business owners who value clarity, accountability, and practical solutions
Engagements may be project-based, interim, or ongoing, depending on the needs of the business.
Background
How I Price My Work
I typically work at an hourly rate of $100 per hour, depending on the scope and nature of the engagement.
Large accounting firms often bill similar work at $200+ per hour due to internal overhead and staffing structures. As an independent advisor, I’m able to provide the same level of senior CFO and Controller support without that overhead — allowing clients to receive experienced financial leadership at a more practical cost.
