About me

Steuerberater
CPA (Certified Public Accountant)*
Executive Finance Project Manager

* registered at Washington State Board of Accountancy, USA

  • For more than 15 years, I’ve gained professional experience in the audit business and in German subsidiaries of US-based corporations listed at the US stock exchange market. I’ve learned that every single business transaction authorized by qualified professionals results in entries in the external, managerial and tax accounting system of a company. Missing processes amongst these Finance Departments lead to misunderstandings and even errors.

  • My mission is to provide solutions. For this, I created F.P.Finance: to offer an integrated consulting approach to provide a full picture of the company’s finance position.

  • I hold a valid license as certified German tax advisor (Steuerberater); as well as a CPA (Certified Public Accountant), registered at Washington State Board of Accountancy, USA.
