Director of Financial Operations at Bloom House Co Inc. (2025-09 – 2026-09)

Licensed cannabis producer selling through provincial wholesale and export channels. Reported directly to the President as the company's senior finance lead.

• Built a labour-cost model joining time-tracking data to production schedules, allocating hours and cost by activity and product to expose labour cost per unit, and produced production reporting by day, product, and activity to support operational decisions.
• Ran a recurring controller-level review of monthly results — trial balance tie-out, account-by-account variance analysis of the P&L and balance sheet, and proposed adjusting entries — explaining variances in monthly results to the President.
• Maintained the rolling cash flow forecast, updating it against daily bank activity and expected collections and payments, and resolved unidentified wires, returned payments, and failed-payment retries.
• Ran accounts payable end to end — reviewing and coding supplier and freight carrier invoices, processing payments, and reconciling payables to bank activity to surface unrecorded bills, unapplied credits, and aged balances.
• Directed receivables across provincial wholesalers and export customers, applying remittances and structuring deposit, split-payment, and discount terms so that billing, payments applied, and balances due reported accurately.
• Evaluated competing suppliers on landed cost and payment terms, quantifying the working-capital trade-off of each option to support sourcing decisions.
• Owned month-end for bank and payables activity and supported the external accountant through year-end on the compiled annual financial statements.
• Prepared and reconciled vendor and invoice master data for an in-development ERP system, and wrote finance procedures routed through QA/QC and relied on in government and licence audits.
• Prepared and remitted monthly CRA GST/HST and excise duty returns, including inventory roll-forwards and duty calculations by province.

T1 Adjustment / T1 Matching Officer at Canada Revenue Agency (2024-02 – 2025-02)

• Validated personal income tax filings against third-party data from employers, financial institutions, and government sources, identifying and documenting discrepancies for resolution.
• Adjudicated taxpayer adjustment requests against the Income Tax Act and CRA policy, producing defensible, fully documented reassessments.
