Accounting Services & Financial Reporting Consultant

Freelance consultant with 9 years of experience, I support companies in the management and reliability of their accounting and financial processes.

I have successfully completed numerous quarterly and annual closings in demanding environments, particularly in the energy, insurance, innovative startups, and large enterprise sectors.

My expertise includes:
• Management of accounting closings (monthly, quarterly, annual)
• Production and review of financial statements
• Financial analysis and reporting
• Improvement of accounting processes
• Monitoring and optimization of financial performance

I am particularly proficient with analysis and management tools, including:

Advanced Excel (modeling, automation, VBA)

Recognized for my rigor, autonomy, and adaptability, I quickly integrate into teams and secure your closings while respecting deadlines and regulatory requirements.

My goal: to provide you with a clear, reliable, and actionable view of your financial data to facilitate decision-making.
