Bio

I am an experienced international CFO/Controller, and Principal at UFO. UFO delivers rock solid, cost effective financial solutions for growing businesses. In my capacity of interim CFO, I help my clients build the financial visibility and structure that they need to prosper. Finance problems I routinely solve include: ‐ Business owners overwhelmed by the financial & administrative aspects of their business - Inadequate visibility & controls over future cash position ‐ Insufficient oversight of books, payroll, taxes - Sub-optimum profitability - money left on the table ‐ Financial processes & systems that cannot scale with the business - Sub-optimum balance sheet & capital structure WHAT I DO: I equip my clients with rock solid forward‐looking visibility & controls that traditional accounting and bookkeeping do not provide. The level of visibility I provide enables radically better informed decision making, which when coupled with proven management controls I implement, yield far more predictable & reliable financial results. I work with my clients to continuously improve the ease of use & affordability of their financial tools and processes and I teach how to do it too. MY CLIENTS: Unified Financial Organization works with CEOs, CFOs, founders, executives, and teams in small, medium and growing companies with revenues between $1M and $50M in a variety of industries. HOW I WORK: Project Basis Working closely with clients, I perform a variety of finance functions on a project basis. Projects are carefully estimated with specific deliverables and time‐lines. On-Demand CFO and Financial Department My team functions as a contract CFO or Director of Finance for a period of time for a monthly fee. I bring a disciplined, professional finance approach and broad problem‐solving and execution capabilities. Advisory I collaborate and support clients as an advisor in weekly or monthly sessions delivering an objective view, accountability, and advice.
