- Prepare ad hoc financial models pulling data from a variety of disparate systems
- Own the financial reporting components of annual regulatory reports to state and federal agencies

- Advanced MS Excel - complex formulas, pivots, and lookups - with real fluency pulling and reconciling data from systems that don't talk to each other
