About

I’m a finance professional with a creative core. Over the past several years, I’ve built experience across Accounts Payable and financial operations, including invoice reconciliation, PO matching, vendor support, and data analysis. Most recently, I supported Cloudflare as an Accounts Payable Specialist, working within systems such as Oracle, Coupa, Certa, and Excel to ensure accuracy, efficiency, and clarity in high-volume environments. I’m known for my organization, adaptability, and attention to detail, as well as my ability to quickly learn new systems and collaborate across teams. Alongside my finance career, I lean into the work that fuels my creativity—writing, storytelling, and cultural commentary. I produce podcasts, write narrative pieces, and explore ways to bridge structure with creativity, and data with meaning. Whether I’m managing payables or creating content, I believe in doing work with intention and integrity. I’m currently open to new opportunities, particularly roles where strategy meets story, precision meets purpose, and people are encouraged to bring their full selves to the table.
