Overview

10 years in finance, the last 3 at Fenwick Networks, where I lead the FP&A team. Built the operating model the board used for a $76 million raise. Saved $7 million a year renegotiating vendor contracts. Before that: Accenture and Meta. Most at home with strategy and Excel. Learning to sail.
