How I Work With Your Environment

Built to fit your tools and IT guardrails

Every business has different tools and constraints. I design solutions that respect your stack and security posture so teams can adopt them without friction.

  • Work entirely inside tools you already have, like Excel, Power Query, and ERP exports
  • Use simple uploads or a browser portal when installs aren't possible
  • Apply AI only where it adds clear value, with data kept inside your environment or anonymized

About

Finance, software, and AI under one roof

I hold an MS Finance, MBA, and BS in Computer Engineering, with time spent in accounting/finance roles and building custom tools. I bridge the gap between controllers and engineers by translating messy AP/AR, reporting, and ERP needs into automation that respects controls and delivers reliable data.

  • Accounting process design (AP/AR, close, reconciliations)
  • Data pipelines, dashboards, and report automation
  • AI-assisted document handling and workflow orchestration
