What is a Rogue CFO?
The term “rogue” may be used to describe an independently-minded person; one who rejects conventional rules of conduct in favor of following personal values.
A word from The Rogue CFO…
Over the years as I paid my dues in the corporate world, working up the accounting & finance ladder, I knew there was more to life. I pursued an MBA degree with a focus on entrepreneurship, and at my last ‘real’ job, I was a CFO for a dot.com in their first year of operations. I had a taste and knew this was the life I wanted.
- 15 Years Experience up to CFO level
- BA – Accounting & Finance from University of the Fraser Valley, B.C., Canada
- MBA – Entrepreneurship from University of WA, Seattle, WA
- Has worked with over 100 startup & growth stage ventures
With a zest for entrepreneurship and wanting to focus exclusively on startup ventures, I became a Rogue CFO – helping startup companies launch their ventures, and left the corporate world to pursue my endeavor. Originally focusing on financial aspects – forecasting, growth, revenue generation, I realized that in working with startups I had a much more vast and broad exposure to the world of startups than I realized. I began working with people who had a great idea but not the business skills to take it beyond the idea stage. As such, I now am involved with all aspects of getting an idea into a solid business plan, launched, structure growth, and implement the best capital growth strategy (IPO, Venture Capital, M&A, etc.). Nothing could be more exciting than seeing a company that really has potential make it.
