Professional

DEAR FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES,

I hope this finds you well.  I thought I would touch bases with you and make you aware that I am currently in the market looking for opportunities.  If you know of anyone who might be looking for someone with my background, please contact me using the Contact page. Or if you have any suggestions as to where I should direct my search, I would appreciate your input and advice.  If necessary, I would be willing to meet at your convenience to discuss further.  Thank you.

OBJECTIVES:

My primary objective is to secure a Programmer Analyst position with emphasis in report development and data analysis.
My secondary objective is to return to my original roots as a Financial Manager for a not-for-profit organization.

BACKGROUND:

To give you a little background, my career has spanned two disciplines – Information Technology and Accounting.

My Information Technology background consists of many roles including, but not limited to, report development, business process analysis and implementation, application development, data auditing, integrity and conversions, project planning and management, website development and support, and testing. I have worked with many different applications and programs.

My Accounting background consists of positions up to and including Director of Finance for a major not-for-profit organization. This includes internal and external reporting, budgeting, allocations, internal controls, cash management, account analyses and auditing. I am considered a self-starter with a “hands-on” management style; one who is not afraid to roll up his shirtsleeves and work side-by-side with the staff.

RESUMES (will open in a new window):
