About Me

I didn't start my career in corporate finance.

I started in retail banking in South Africa, leading teams, managing operations, and learning how business decisions affect people in the real world.

Since then, my path has taken me from banking leadership to business analytics, healthcare finance, and now strategic finance at Maverik.

Today I partner with operations, procurement, real estate, and executive leadership to help answer questions that sit at the intersection of finance and execution.. Where are we creating value? What risks are emerging? Which decisions deserve investment? How do we turn data into action?

My work spans FP&A, forecasting, profitability analysis, operational analytics, scenario modeling, SQL reporting, and financial systems automation.

What excites me most isn't building reports.

It's helping leaders make better decisions.

Outside of work, I'm passionate about fitness, continuous learning, and building a life I'm proud of.

If you're interested in finance, analytics, strategy, or operational excellence, I'd be glad to connect.
