I started my career with Trammell Crow (now part of CBRE) as a property accountant, I demonstrated this tenacity for providing consistent reporting which was recognized by a key customer who had their entire property portfolio be transferred to me. It continued at Darden Restaurants, as a Sr Financial Analyst and Sr Compensation Analyst, where I took on wide-ranging projects requiring flexibility and creativity, including budgeting, financial performance analysis, competitor research, and new software implementation. At Siemens, I continued my track record of flexibility by stepping into roles not previously foreseen and yet successfully accomplishing, including foreign currency management, cash management, and facilities financial management.

I have an undergraduate degree in Finance with a minor in computer science. I've worked in Finance & Accounting roles for over fifteen years. I've used Excel as a primary tool for most of my career.

I've volunteered with Adult Literacy League for two years where I tutored adults with various degrees of reading ability. I've also been a member of Toastmaster International for seven years where members improve their public speaking skills by frequent practice and receiving continuous feedback as well as helping others to reach their public speaking goals.

If you are working towards a career in Business Administration in general and finance and accounting specifically, it would be my privilege to help you reach your career goals.

Approved Subjects

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel

My formal education in Excel includes an undergraduate spreadsheets course and financial models course at the University of Central Florida. I also have 20 years of financial modeling, financial analysis, and data analysis experience using Excel as my primary tool. Whether you are a student, professional, or self-motivated learner, I can help you reach your Excel goals. Whether looking for help with a specific problem, general topic, or want an entire customized course created just for you, I can do it. All I ask is that you bring a positive attitude and willingness to work and I will take care of the rest.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

My formal academic training includes one undergraduate speech course at Valencia Community College and a graduate level presentations course at Rollins College. My informal training includes seven years of active membership in Toastmasters International, an organization dedicated to helping people improve their public speaking skills. I've used my speaking expertise to give hundreds of speeches, presentations, and interviews over the years, in both business, volunteer, and academic endeavors. Whether you are a student, professional, or self-motivated learner, I can help you reach your speaking goals. Whether looking for help with a specific engagement, general skill area (i.e. speech organization, using visuals), or want an entire customized course created just for you, I can do it. All I ask is that you bring a positive attitude and willingness to work and I will take care of the rest.
Reading

Reading

I have been a volunteer reading tutor with Adult Literacy League for over two years assisting adults of all ages and abilities become confident readers. It is truly rewarding to help open this door into a world that was previously closed to them because they could not read. If you are an adult learner, I can help you reach your reading goals. Whether looking for help with reading for school, reading as a life/vocational necessity, or reading just for pleasure, I want to help. All I ask is that you bring a positive attitude and willingness to work and I will take care of the rest.

Highly Recommended

Joshua helped me navigate an Excel/finance assessment with confidence. We worked through three challenging problems, including analyzing a case study to extract key financial insights and creating a monthly sales seasonality chart. He breaks down complex tasks and explains concepts clearly. His way of guiding me through the logic behind each step was invaluable.
