I am a CPA with a unique combination of accounting, finance, operational and management experience. This progressively increasing experience has developed over my twenty-two year career and encompasses the manufacturing, construction, system integration and software development industries. I am a problem solving, decision making, operational CFO that enjoys and excels at working with all other company departments. I take ownership of company problems and solve them with minimal support and direction. I have a commitment to both personal and professional excellence, exemplified by a strong and consistent work ethic, a “team focus”, tested problem-solving and multi-tasking skills, a keen understanding of the importance of customer loyalty/retention and a dedication to sustained and steady profit growth. I am seeking a CFO Plus position where I can continue to add value to a company beyond the traditional CFO’s defined roles and responsibilities. I received my CPA in February 1997 from the state of Arizona (Certificate #10195-E) and I have remained in good standing since. I was the Philadelphia Business Journal 2008 CFO of the Year Finalist.
