Work Experience

Zocks Logo

Director of Finance

Zocks

June 2026 - Present

Strategic finance and corporate development lead at a Series B AI company building a client intelligence platform for wealth management. I own the company model, forecasting, and the monthly close and board reporting cycle, and I built the pricing and unit economics behind our newest AI feature. On corp dev, I structured and ran financial diligence on an acquisition end to end, from consideration mix through earnout design and integration planning. I also own gross margin, AI cost of goods, and ARR reporting integrity, working directly with the CEO, COO, and CRO.

Zocks

July 2025 - June 2026

Ran the CEO's office at Zocks through the Series B period. I built and co-owned the company financial model and forecast, supported capital raising including SAFE structuring, and produced board materials and investor communications. I also led the enterprise due diligence process for large financial institutions and broker-dealers and supported contract negotiations on our largest deals, and I built an internal AI tool that drafts DDQ and security questionnaire responses, cutting turnaround from roughly a week to a couple of days. The role converted into Director of Finance.
