About

Accounting and FP&A, in one seat.

I own the full finance function for a multi-channel fine jewelry brand: the close, the controls, and board-ready FP&A for pricing, growth, and investment. One direct report.

At Ekimetrics I was finance manager while revenue grew from about $8M to $25M, on Microsoft Dynamics for nearly four years, turning Power Query into interactive BI. I reported to the U.S. GM and the global head of FP&A.

At La Fermiere I ran US GAAP close, cash forecasting, and the budget through +75% revenue growth and an ERP transition, with the CFO, the GM, and European HQ.

What I’m doing

Sample financials operators can open.

These are interactive dashboards, not a binder of classic statements. The companies are fictional. The point is the pack I would publish for a GM: change the period or the case, and the numbers, the chart, and the note all move.
