CFO | CFA & MBA | Financial Modeling & Dashboard | Investor Reporting
Need a CFA-certified financial modeler, with hands-on CFO experience building real finance functions from scratch, to help you raise capital, forecast growth, and make smarter decisions? You're in the right place. 📌 About Me With 10+ years in finance — including roles as Finance Manager, Financial Modeler, and Analyst at a leading asset management firm ($2B+ AUM), and most recently as CFO of an AI-driven biotech SaaS company (~$4M ARR, US & UK operations) — I don't just build models. I've lived inside the numbers, built the systems, and used the outputs to drive real business decisions. I specialize in clean, decision-ready financial tools: forecasting models, investor-grade dashboards, SaaS KPI frameworks, and valuation frameworks — built for founders, boards, and investors who need clarity, not spreadsheet noise. What makes me different: I've built production-grade, fully automated finance stacks (Supabase, PostgreSQL, Python, API integrations) and leveraged AI-assisted development to compress what normally takes a team into fast, finance-led execution. 💼 Services I Offer: ✔ 3-statement financial modeling (P&L, CF, BS, ratios, charts) ✔ Pro forma projections & forecasting ✔ Valuation modeling (DCF, comps, precedents) ✔ DCF, IRR & capital budgeting (NPV, payback, PI) ✔ SaaS KPI frameworks (MRR, ARR, ARPU, Churn, CAC, LTV, cohort analyses) — fully automated ✔ Investor-grade reporting packs & board-ready dashboards ✔ Marketing finance & channel analytics (ROAS, CAC by channel, conversion funnels) ✔ Dynamic dashboards (Excel, Google Sheets, Power BI) ✔ Investment risk & performance analysis (Sharpe, alpha, drawdown, etc.) ✔ Scenario & sensitivity modeling (base, bear, bull) ✔ Cap table modeling (dilution, ownership) ✔ Return distribution modeling (LP/GP, equity waterfalls, hurdle, promote) ✔ Multi-entity consolidation & FP&A (budgeting, rolling forecasts, variance analysis) 💡 Industries I've Worked With: - SaaS & AI/biotech startups - eCommerce - Real estate & investment firms - Manufacturing & servicing companies - Traditional investments & wealth management - Crypto asset management - Healthcare & private medical practices 🤝 Ready to build something that drives real decisions? Let's talk — I respond quickly and deliver with clarity, precision, and professionalism.
