Financial Modeling | Startup FP&A | Helped Raise 20M+ for Startups

If you're raising funds for your startup, I build, audit, and fix financial models that give investors confidence in your numbers — and give you a clear, honest read on your runway and growth drivers before you ever walk into a meeting. I built the model behind a $3.5M raise for an early-stage startup, and I've been the analyst rebuilding and maintaining models for founders who've collectively raised $20M+. On one recent engagement, I caught a subscriber churn calculation that had been overstating recurring revenue for months — the kind of error that looks fine until an investor's diligence team finds it first. I build driver-based models — often rolling forecasts — across a range of industries, with a concentration in SaaS and e-commerce. Every number is linked to a real business driver rather than a static assumption, so when your growth rate, pricing, or churn changes, the entire model updates with it. That's what lets it hold up under investor and board scrutiny, not just look clean in a pitch deck. Over the past 4+ years, I've built and maintained dozens of live financial models at a US-based fractional CFO firm, working directly with founders on fundraising preparation, budgeting, forecasting, and board-level reporting. I'm currently pursuing the CMA designation to further strengthen my financial expertise. What I can help with: Investor-ready financial modeling & fundraising support Building and auditing 3-statement models — catching errors before they reach investors Revenue forecasting, scenario planning, unit economics & cash runway analysis Cohort-based subscription and churn modeling for SaaS businesses Multi-entity consolidation — consolidating financials across subsidiaries into a unified reporting structure Managing and reviewing the work of junior FP&A analysts Budgeting, rolling forecasts & ongoing FP&A support Investor and board-ready reporting packages Fractional/part-time FP&A support for CFO firms and lean finance teams If you need a financial model you can actually put in front of investors — let's talk.
