Finance Executive | Certified Management Consultant (CMC) | CFO Advisor | Business & HR Transformation Leader

I am a Finance Executive, Certified Management Consultant (CMC), and Strategic Advisor specializing in transforming finance functions into strategic enablers of business growth, operational efficiency, and long-term value creation.

With over 13 years of cross-industry experience across Africa and North America, I have worked with startups, high-growth companies, and established organizations—supporting them in building strong financial systems, strengthening compliance, and scaling with confidence.

My work sits at the intersection of finance, strategy, governance, and human capital, enabling organizations to move from financial complexity to clarity, structure, and sustainable performance.

I operate in Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and senior finance leadership capacities, both as an in-house leader and as a strategic advisor. I partner closely with founders, executives, and boards to lead financial strategy and performance management, drive enterprise-wide transformation initiatives, strengthen governance and internal controls, and deliver board-level insights that support critical business decisions.

My experience spans building finance functions from the ground up, as well as restructuring and optimizing existing systems to support scale, efficiency, and long-term value creation across diverse business environments.

My core expertise includes financial strategy and planning, cash flow optimization, finance operations and governance, internal controls and regulatory compliance, ERP implementation and finance systems transformation, performance management, executive advisory, and human resources strategy and organizational development.

I bring a strong track record of delivering measurable impact, including improving operational efficiency, strengthening financial controls, enhancing cash flow visibility, and supporting organizations through periods of growth and transformation. My cross-industry experience includes manufacturing, healthcare, technology, oil and gas, logistics, and professional services, enabling me to adapt quickly and implement best practices across different business models.

I am a Fellow Chartered Accountant (FCA), a Certified Management Consultant (CMC), and a Project Management Professional (PMP). I hold a Master’s degree in Human Resource Management and Development (CIPD), a postgraduate degree in Business Systems Analysis and Project Management, and a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and Taxation.

I am a finance leader who goes beyond reporting numbers—I build the systems, structures, and strategic insight that enable organizations to scale sustainably, operate efficiently, and make confident decisions.
