Summary

As a child I knew I had a passion for numbers; as an adult, that notion prevails. I am a highly ambitious individual and most recently held positions of Associate Director and Senior Financial Coordinator, with a background in finance, sales, offshore investments and UK pensions. My experience has allowed me to acquire expertise in both on and offshore market analysis, forecasting and client financial needs assessments. I have also gained experience in marketing, management, operations, sales and distribution. My goal-oriented nature and tenacity knows no restrictions. I am a dedicated individual with a keen working attitude and desire to do and be the very best, which is what drives me to always succeed.
