Most spreadsheets can't answer the question you actually care about: if we do X, what happens to the numbers? I build the models that can. I'm a financial analyst at an investment firm, where my job is building valuation models and forecasts that people put real money behind. That means my work has to hold up when someone checks it, and I carry the same standard into every Upwork project. I've passed CFA Level 1, I'm sitting Level 2 in November, and I'm Top Rated with 5-star feedback and over $10K earned. Here's what you get when you hire me: - A model you can trust. Numbers come from source documents, formulas are consistent, and I check my own work before it reaches you. - A model you can understand. Inputs in one place, clear structure, and a short note with every file explaining what the results show, what I assumed, and what still needs confirming. No black boxes. - Answers, not just numbers. I build the forecast, then tell you what it means: where the cash goes, which assumptions matter, and what changes if you're wrong. What I work on: three-statement models and driver-based forecasts, budgets and scenarios, monthly and quarterly reporting, DCF and valuation, unit economics, and dashboards that update themselves so you stop rebuilding reports by hand. I work in Excel and Google Sheets, with Python and SQL for bigger data jobs. Fluent English, and I'm comfortable working US hours.
