Up Comming Excel Seminars

I am a South Bay based Corporate Financial Consultant who Kicks the work out of FP&A. This includes all phases such as Budgeting, Forecasting, Account analysis, and Cost Accounting.

Using my over 30 years experience in Finance and Accounting combined with my 25 years experience with spreadsheets I help companies improve their existing Excel spreadsheets.

Using my knowledge in Finance and Excel I design and implement new solutions faster and with greater clarity that saves companies time and money.

In these times of economic disruption it is more important than ever for your employees to be not only functional but literate in Excel.

I provide custom on site Excel classes for companies that wish to expand and update their employees skills.
