125M+ in capital raise asks modeled so far this year.
Fractional CFO & Lead FP&A.
Ex-EY / EY Parthenon Financial Modeler and Valuation Analyst.
FMVA and FPAP certified.
I build two things: financial models that help founders raise capital, and CFO-level financial systems that help operators run their business without guessing.
After we work together, you walk into your next investor meeting and answer "what happens if growth slows 20%?" without flinching. Your model updates in real time. Your deck and your numbers tell the same story.
For capital raises: you get an investor-ready financial model built around your actual business logic - not a template with your logo on it. Every assumption visible, every scenario toggleable, every investor question answered before they ask it. The same approach behind $110M+ in raise packages across SaaS, real estate, CPG, agriculture, clean energy, and numerous other industries.
For ongoing operations: you get a CFO-level decision system built from your raw data. P&L, cash flow, margins by product, runway projections, scenario planning - one screen, 30 seconds, every Monday morning. 82% of businesses that fail cite poor cash flow management. This system makes sure you're not one of them.
You stop making $50,000 decisions based on your bank balance and start making them based on actual data
Most financial models you'll find on Upwork are templates with your numbers dropped in. Mine are decision tools - built around how your business actually runs, stress-tested for the questions investors and partners will ask, and structured so you can maintain them yourself long after we're done.
I don't just build and disappear. I start with a structured assumptions interview so every input is locked before I write a single formula. I deliver a recorded walkthrough of every tab so you understand exactly what your numbers say and why. And when you're ready to present, you're not defending someone else's spreadsheet - you're presenting a model you actually understand.
"The financial model for our SaaS startup was clear, flexible, and easy for our team to use in investor discussions. Adjustments to growth assumptions could be made instantly." - Adam, HealthTech Startup Founder
"He took our initial financial model framework and significantly upgraded it - restructuring the revenue logic to better reflect our actual business plan and making the whole model much more flexible and easier to adjust going forward." - A.B., Investor
Taking on 2-3 new engagements per month. If you're raising capital or need financial clarity to run your business, message me with a quick overview - what your business does and what you're trying to accomplish. I'll tell you if I can help and how.

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.
