About Me

I'm a finance and analytics professional whose work sits across financial planning, reconciliation, and data engineering. At Colt Technology Services I built scenario forecasting models in Anaplan that hit 91.9% accuracy, ran monthly variance analysis across three business units on $500K–$1M in actuals, and reconciled forecast and consolidation data across Oracle FCCS and internal systems closely enough to surface a dormant vendor billing two years after deactivation, worth $1.2M+ in recoverable spend.

The engineering side is what makes the finance side faster. I write the SQL and Python that moves the data, then build the Power BI and Excel layers that finance and operations leadership make decisions on. Most recently I've been building multi-agent LLM systems for finance operations, with validation layers that stop unverified numbers from ever reaching a user.

Engineering degree first, then an M.S. in Business with a major in Financial Analytics at Oregon State (STEM-designated, GPA 3.62). I'm looking for roles in financial analysis, FP&A, business analytics, or data analytics where the work connects to real decisions and real numbers.

Work Experience

Colt Technology Services
Analyst — Finance, Reporting & Analytics
Oct 2022 → Jul 2024
Global Enterprise Services
  • Led post-acquisition integration of 2M+ financial and customer records across SAP ERP and billing systems via automated SQL and Python reconciliation scripts, delivering 98% data accuracy and uninterrupted finance and revenue reporting through the cutover.
  • Reconciled forecast and consolidation data across Oracle FCCS (with PBCS exposure) and internal databases with audit-ready mapping and control documentation, uncovering a dormant vendor service billing two years post-deactivation and surfacing $1.2M+ in recoverable spend.
  • Developed scenario-based forecasting and long-range planning models in Anaplan, Python, and Excel using 3+ years of historical demand data, achieving 91.9% forecast accuracy and unlocking $200K+ in annual savings through better capacity and procurement timing.
  • Performed monthly variance analysis across 3 business units on $500K–$1M in revenue, gross margin, and operating cost actuals vs. forecast, delivering root-cause commentary to Finance leadership and BU heads 48 hours ahead of quarterly close.
  • Consolidated data from 5+ source systems into automated SQL and Python ETL pipelines, cutting manual reporting effort by 40% and enabling daily rather than weekly refresh of executive dashboards for Finance and Operations leadership.
  • Built Power BI KPI frameworks with custom DAX measures tracking revenue, gross margin, and service delivery, which became the standard pre- and post-billing cycle review tool and reduced analysis turnaround by 30%.
  • Designed SQL-based validation rules and reconciliation controls across billing and revenue reporting, reducing errors by 60% and strengthening monthly close and audit readiness ahead of quarterly review.
  • Refactored a shared SQL function library using CTEs, window functions, and indexing, standardizing reconciliation and operations workflows team-wide and cutting query execution time by 30% for 50+ users.
  • Identified inefficiencies in a client's analytical processes around integrating blockchain with existing database frameworks, leading implementation of a blockchain-based billing system that strengthened data integrity and increased monthly revenue capture by EUR 500,000.
  • Executed 20+ monthly UAT cycles across SAP and internally built billing and financial systems, logging 10+ defects over two years and driving them to closure with owning teams, then reconciling post-release billing and reporting outputs before production promotion.
  • Gathered reporting and system-change requirements directly from 2–3 stakeholders per request across Finance, Operations, IT, and client teams, confirming scope in writing and validating draft outputs with requesters before build; resolved 20–30 ad hoc analysis requests per month routed through JIRA from 5 cross-functional teams.
  • Partnered cross-functionally with Finance, Operations, and IT to deliver monthly executive review packs adopted by all 3 departments, and authored 4 SOPs covering reconciliation logic, Power BI refresh, and CRM workflows that cut new analyst onboarding time by two weeks.
Oregon State University
Student Assistant — McNary Student Center
Oct 2024 → Jun 2026
Concurrent with M.S.
  • Reconciled 200+ point-of-sale transactions totaling $1,500–$2,000 per shift at end of day in Excel, validating cash, credit, and alternate tender entries against system totals and delivering a verified daily close-out to the back office manager.
  • Rebuilt an inherited Excel reconciliation template, restructuring formulas and layout to cut daily close-out time by 40% and make the process easier for other student assistants to complete accurately, standardizing reporting across the team.
  • Supported 150–200 students per shift across 5 shifts weekly in a combined front-office and back-office role, handling customer relationship management, account and transaction inquiries, and escalations.
  • Trained and onboarded 5+ incoming student assistants on point-of-sale operations, end-of-day reconciliation, and front-desk service standards, keeping close-out coverage consistent across shifts.
Campus Hyre
Analyst Intern
Aug 2021 → Dec 2021
Early-stage startup
  • Built Python and SQL pipelines for multi-source data aggregation across operational and financial datasets, saving 15 hours of manual effort per week, improving processing efficiency by 35%, and informing pricing, resource planning, and capacity decisions.
  • Automated weekly Excel reporting workflows, replacing manual tracking processes and accelerating decision turnaround by 25%.
  • Built live Power BI dashboards to replace the manual Excel dashboards in use, rebuilding broken data sources and calculations, adding validation rules, and automating refresh, cutting errors per reporting cycle by 30% while applying descriptive statistics and trend analysis for business stakeholders.
