I am qualified to tutor in finance, accounting, and business analytics based on my academic background, professional experience, and hands-on leadership developing others in financial roles. I hold an MBA from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Summa Cum Laude, and a B.S. in Finance, Magna Cum Laude, from Virginia Tech, providing a strong foundation in accounting, corporate finance, managerial finance, and financial modeling.

With more than seven years of experience across strategic finance, FP&A, program finance, and proposal analysis, I have developed deep expertise in budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, P&L management, and cash flow modeling. These competencies align directly with tutoring subjects including financial accounting, managerial and cost accounting, budgeting, financial statement analysis, KPI measurement, and Excel-based modeling.

My roles have consistently required teaching, coaching, and developing others in accounting and finance concepts. At MITRE, I lead a team of 10+ finance professionals, strengthening skills in forecasting, variance analysis, and strategic finance support through one-on-one coaching, group instruction, and hands-on walkthroughs. During the Lockheed Martin Finance Leadership Development Program, I completed advanced training in executive communication, strategic influence, and business case development, requiring clear explanation of complex financial and accounting topics.

Across roles, I have trained colleagues on forecasting methods, cost control, P&L and margin analysis, cash flow modeling, accounting system navigation, and financial reporting. My teaching style emphasizes clarity, practical application, and building confidence through structured guidance.

My mentorship experience has primarily involved adult learners and early-career professionals, typically ages 22-40, in both one-on-one and small-group settings, ranging from short-term coaching to multi-year development relationships.

I’m a Strategic Finance Manager with 7+ years of FP&A and program finance experience supporting multibillion-dollar, private equity–backed businesses. I use Excel daily to build financial models, forecasts, KPI dashboards, and executive reporting, and I regularly work with functions like VLOOKUP, pivot tables, IF statements, and SUMIF(S). I also mentor analysts, so I’m experienced at breaking down concepts clearly and helping others build both technical skill and confidence.
