Hello! I am a CFA Charterholder and highly experienced former investment banker with 14 years of track record in finance, specializing in financial modeling, financial management, project finance and debt capital markets. Throughout my career, I have advised C-suite executives on key issues, including equity and debt fundraising, deal structuring and loan underwriting, financial management and investor relationship, etc. My primary sector expertise includes Retail, Real Estate, Renewable Energy, SaaS, and Manufacturing. Prior to consulting on Upwork, I served as a VP at a top investment bank in my country and as an Associate Banker covering renewable energy project finance loan portfolio at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD). I started my career as a financial auditor at KPMG. Detailed breakdown of my services: ➡️ CFO Services: FP&A (budgeting, KPI dashboards, unit economics); Cash Flow Optimization (liquidity forecasting, burn rate management), and Financial Strategy (growth plans, capital allocation, and scenario testing). ➡️ Real Estate: Financial models for the acquisition, development, and construction of multifamily, commercial, and mixed-use projects. These models support both equity investment decisions and debt underwriting. ➡️ Project Finance: Complex modeling for the construction, financing, and operation of renewable energy projects (Solar, Wind, BESS, and Hydro). Models include multiple operating and financing scenarios to support fundraising. ➡️ Company Valuation: Accurate estimation of enterprise and equity values using various methods, including Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), publicly traded comparables, and precedent transactions. ➡️ Private Equity: Leveraged Buyout (LBO) models used by PE firms to evaluate acquisitions, or by sell-side management teams to estimate the maximum price a PE firm would be willing to pay. ➡️ M&A Analysis: Modeling for M&A transaction evaluation. This includes consolidating financial statements, analyzing capital structure scenarios, and performing accretion/dilution analysis. You can find examples of my work in the portfolio section below.
