+17 years across boardrooms, balance sheets, and broken spreadsheets — I have seen what kills businesses financially and what actually grows them. I have sat in the CFO chair across manufacturing, healthcare, retail, technology, NGOs, and impact-driven organizations. The problems are always different. The financial discipline required to fix them is always the same. I work with startups, SMEs, NGOs, and business owners who need more than a number-cruncher. They need a strategic financial partner who can build investor-ready financial models that survive due diligence, design AI-powered KPI dashboards that replace manual reports, structure fundraising strategies that land capital, and deliver ESG and SDG reporting frameworks that satisfy regulators, boards, and impact investors. That is what I do. And I have done it for over two decades across every kind of industry. ——— WHAT I DELIVER ——— FINANCIAL MODELING & BUSINESS VALUATION I build 3-statement models, DCF analysis, scenario planning, sensitivity analysis, LBO models, cap table modeling, and startup financial projections that founders, CFOs, and investors trust. Whether you are a pre-revenue startup validating your business model or a $50M company preparing for an acquisition — the model I build tells the real story and holds up under scrutiny. I have built models that have directly supported funding rounds, M&A transactions, and strategic decisions at board level. INVESTOR PITCH DECKS & BUSINESS PLANS A pitch deck is not a design exercise. It is a financial argument with slides. I structure pitch decks and business plans around the questions investors actually ask — unit economics, market sizing, revenue assumptions, burn rate, and exit pathways. Clients have used my materials to raise capital from venture capitalists, private equity firms, development finance institutions, and banks across multiple industries. I write the narrative, model the numbers, and make sure both tell the same story. AI AUTOMATION & KPI DASHBOARD DESIGN I design and implement AI-powered financial dashboards and process automation workflows tailored to each industry. Using Power BI, Tableau, and AI integrations, I replace spreadsheet chaos with real-time visibility into the KPIs that drive decisions. Finance teams stop chasing data and start using it. I have deployed dashboards across healthcare, retail, manufacturing, and technology — cutting reporting time significantly and giving leadership the financial visibility they have been missing. FUNDRAISING CONSULTANCY & CAPITAL RAISING STRATEGY I have supported fundraising across equity, debt, grant funding, impact capital, and blended finance structures. From building the data room to coaching leadership through investor conversations, I manage the full capital raising process — not just the documents. I understand what development finance institutions, impact investors, and institutional lenders need to see, and I structure every engagement accordingly. ESG, SDG & SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING FRAMEWORKS As ESG reporting becomes mandatory across most markets, organizations need someone who understands both the financial and impact dimensions. I build ESG and SDG KPI frameworks, sustainability reporting aligned to GRI, TCFD, and CSRD standards, impact measurement systems, and non-financial disclosures that meet regulatory expectations and attract impact-driven capital. FINANCIAL PLANNING & ANALYSIS (FP&A) I run end-to-end FP&A engagements covering budgeting, rolling forecasts, cash flow management, variance analysis, cost reduction strategy, and board-level financial reporting. I help leadership teams move from gut-feel decisions to data-backed ones — with clear visibility into what the numbers are saying and what to do about it. STRATEGIC CFO ADVISORY Beyond the deliverables, I act as a thinking partner to founders, CEOs, and boards on decisions that shape financial outcomes. Pricing strategy. Capital structure. M&A readiness. Market entry economics. Risk management. I bring 20+ years of cross-industry CFO experience to every conversation — boardroom credibility without the full-time price tag. ——— WHO I WORK BEST WITH ——— Startups preparing for their first or next raise. SMEs scaling past the spreadsheet phase. NGOs building impact frameworks for donors and DFIs. Business owners whose numbers are not telling the right story to investors, lenders, or their own board. If that is you — let us talk
