Need financial models and data you can actually trust to make decisions with? You're in the right place. I'm a former Director of FP&A and Financial Systems who spent 10+ years building the analytical and data infrastructure for high-profile organizations - then went independent so I could bring that same director-level rigor to companies that need it most. What I actually do: I turn messy financial data into clear models, dashboards, and automated systems that executives use to make real decisions. Not theoretical exercises - working tools that save time, reduce errors, and surface the numbers that matter. Where I deliver the most value: Financial Modeling & Forecasting - Dynamic 3-statement models, scenario analysis, budgeting frameworks. Built for SaaS, Manufacturing, Real Estate, and E-commerce. Data Analytics & Business Intelligence - I dig into your data to find the story behind the numbers. Whether it's building SQL pipelines, analyzing trends in Python, or structuring raw data into something actionable, I bridge the gap between raw data and strategic insight. FP&A & Business Strategy - SaaS metrics (MRR, Churn, LTV), cost structures, profitability analysis, capital allocation. The kind of analysis that changes how leadership makes decisions. Excel/VBA & Python/SQL Automation - I automate the reporting and data workflows that are eating your team's time. Power Query, VBA macros, Python scripts, SQL queries, ETL pipelines - whatever gets the job done fastest. ERP Implementation & Integration - NetSuite, Sage Intacct, ADP. I've led large-scale transitions and built the data and reporting layers on top. Dashboards & Data Visualization - Interactive dashboards that give you real-time visibility into the metrics your board and investors actually ask about. Why clients keep coming back: Every model I build is designed for your business, not a generic template. I work directly with founders, CFOs, and ops teams - I speak both the technical language and the business language, which means less back-and-forth and faster results. I'm as comfortable writing Python and SQL as I am presenting to a board. FAQs: Q: Can you integrate financial models with our existing systems? A: Yes - I have extensive experience linking models with ERP systems and automating data inputs from multiple sources. If your data lives in five different places, I'll consolidate it. Q: What industries have you worked in? A: SaaS, Manufacturing, Real Estate, E-commerce, and more. My models are built to adapt to your specific business drivers, not the other way around. Q: Do you work with Python/SQL or just Excel? A: Both - and I pick the right tool for the job. For most financial modeling, Excel is king. But when you need to automate data pipelines, work with larger datasets, pull from APIs, or build repeatable ETL processes, Python and SQL are where I live. What clients say: "Russell streamlined our entire budgeting process with a custom Excel model. His attention to detail and ability to automate complex financial reports saved us countless hours." "Russell implemented a seamless ERP system for us. The integration was smooth, and the reporting tools he created have become essential to our operations."
