MAcc & MBA — based in Chicago, Illinois.
I'm an experienced manufacturing project-based financial consultant who has sat through disastrous ERP implementations and turned disastrous balance sheet and profit and loss (P&L) reports into clean, reconciled, and analyzed financial statements with actionable results. I have experience with actual, standard, and moving average costing for both work-order and process-oriented manufacturing operations. ERPs tell a story that often is missed — people blame technology, when technology is often trying to tell a story.
If you're experiencing pain or need guidance on the finance module of your ERP implementation, let's chat. My initial consultation is free.
Technical architecture — SAP, OneStream, JD Edwards — only pays off once the people running it trust the numbers. I specialize in bridging the gap between legacy technical complex systems and agile, data-driven manufacturing operations, combining ERP architecture with the change management it takes to get a plant floor to trust a new set of numbers. My background spans corporate controllership, operations controllership, and cost accounting roles across industrial manufacturing, food & beverage, and process manufacturing environments.
Every engagement starts with the same free consultation — a plain-language conversation about what your close, your costing, or your ERP is actually telling you, before we scope anything.
You'll get straight talk about what the numbers mean and what's driving them — not consultant-speak.
Every project has a clear deliverable and timeline set upfront — no open-ended retainers or scope creep.
I work with your controller, plant leadership, and finance staff directly — building something they'll actually keep using after I'm gone.
When an ERP surfaces a painful number, the system isn't the enemy — it's usually telling you something worth hearing. We start there.

There's no charge for an initial consultation, and our discussion is completely confidential. We'll talk through where your close, your costing, or your reporting is falling short.
Engagements are billed hourly or at a flat project fee, depending on scope and complexity — typical projects run anywhere from one week to six months.
