Manager of Financial Reporting & Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A)

Dec 2008 - Sep 2019
Adapted and grew my financial acumen and leadership skills as Wilton Brands went through a series of M&A transactions during it's private equity years. During this time I led financial reporting and analysis teams who provided back office finance support for diligence activities and acquisitions, synergy tracking, operational and financial systems integrations, and ultimately divestitures. Became a trusted c-suite advisor to multiple executive teams who inspired and led Wilton Brands over this period. The final transaction that was supported was the sale of Wilton Brands from Towerbrook Capital Partners to Dr. Oetker, KG, in the fall of 2018. Show less
