HI I’M MIKE

Finance doesn’t have to be complicated

I’m a major finance nerd and have spent the last 12 years working in the Fortune 100, building a startup's finance and accounting department, advising small businesses, and guiding non-profit organizations as a board member. I have finance experience across multiple industries, including Telecom, Media and Entertainment, Hospitality, and Construction.

I’ve always been a big believer in the power of finance and data to tackle challenges. That’s why I founded F9 Finance – to turn my passion into an opportunity to help others. Whether you’re a seasoned finance professional aiming to step up your game or a small business owner seeking to make sense of the numbers, F9 Finance is here to make finance and data not just accessible but also enjoyable.
