I planned, directed, or coordinated all business facility & administrative
operational functions of the company. My primary achievements & successes
while with SciMetrika, LLC included:
- Coordinated and directed the designing, planning, construction,
maintenance, and necessary alteration of equipment, machinery, buildings,
and other facilitative needs of the Company.
- Developed the first all inclusive Corporate departmentally segmented
Budget, that became a useful source by all members of the leadership team
throughout the year in terms of its effectiveness with assisting Managers
with maintaining and planning their appropriate spending levels and most
importantly allowing Management for the first time to better achieve sales
revenue objectives on a monthly basis through improved and advanced
planning.

that was easily maintainable, more efficient and useful than previous
reports used.

reviewed, approved and signed all A/P and employee reimbursement checks
while fulfilling the role as CFO through October of 2010.

for effectively communicating both orally and in writing with senior
leadership members on such matters as monthly dashboard or other key
financial information, issues related to financial trends, budgetary
variances or related needs, proposing recommendations for improvement, as
well as on other tactical and strategic planning matters.
- Streamlined and significantly improved upon past cross-departmental
issues, by effectively instigating a positive and open channel of
communications with all department heads that lead to improved means for
identifying more promptly any operational needs, hardware and software
requirements, as well as in determining the scope and prioritization of
certain projects and need for indentifying needs for special task forces or
project teams.
- Successfully negotiated excellent terms and conditions of the new

achieving the necessary increase in office space (nearly tripling its
previous lease space) needed by SciMetrika, to support its rapid growth in
terms of employees working in the corporate headquarters.
