CO-FOUNDERFinModelsLab

Turning financial thinking into practical tools.

About me

Finance expertise.
An operator’s mindset.

I work where financial thinking meets the way a business actually runs.

My background spans 15 years in banking, finance, and business systems, including systems work in large international companies. It taught me to look beyond a single spreadsheet: at the assumptions, the people, and the processes behind it.

As a co-founder of FinModelsLab, I help turn financial research and planning ideas into useful products. My work also extends to digital platforms, operations, and making complex information easier to use.

Whether you’re testing an idea, planning growth, or improving how things work, I start with the question you need to answer.

How I can help

Strategy. Numbers. Systems. Connected.

Your finance.
Working smarter.

Senior financial thinking and hands-on delivery, shaped around what your business needs next.

Fractional CFO & FP&A

Make financial information useful between reporting deadlines. I help founders understand cash, set priorities, and see whether the business is performing as planned. We connect the forecast with the decisions on hiring, spending, financing, and growth.

What we can work on

  • Cash forecasts and a clear view of runway and funding needs
  • Budgets, rolling forecasts, and actual-versus-plan reporting
  • Management dashboards, operating KPIs, and decision support

For founders who need senior financial input and a more consistent planning rhythm.

Discuss CFO support

Financial modeling

Turn the way your business operates into a financial picture you can question and update. Start with the drivers of sales, costs, investment, and working capital, then see how they affect profitability, cash, and the funding required to deliver the plan.

What we can work on

  • Revenue and cost schedules linked to financial statements
  • Base, upside, and downside cases with visible assumptions
  • Funding, valuation, and sensitivity analysis, with an editable handover

For a launch, a funding discussion, an expansion decision, or a model that needs rebuilding.

Discuss a financial model

Business planning & consulting

Bring the commercial idea and its financial case into a coherent plan. I work through the customer, market, operating requirements, and economics with you, so the written story and the numbers support the same objective.

What we can work on

  • Market and business-model research tied to the project brief
  • Operating plans, unit economics, launch costs, and funding requirements
  • A structured business plan and supporting material for partners, lenders, or investors

For turning an idea into a workable plan or explaining the next stage of an existing business.

Talk through your business plan

Finance automation

Reduce the repeated work between a data source and a useful financial answer. I help map the workflow, connect inputs, and introduce checks, so reporting becomes easier to maintain and your team can spend more time understanding the result.

What we can work on

  • Recurring reporting and data consolidation workflows
  • Spreadsheet and system connections with clear validation rules
  • AI-assisted research and analysis with human review and documented handover

For teams spending too much time copying, reconciling, and rebuilding the same reports.
