Data & systems

Numbers are only as good
as the data beneath them

Data transformation

Two ledgers, no common chart of accounts — unified into one reporting structure without interrupting the close or restating prior periods.

Triplemint integration·Thirty days to ten

Multi-source consolidation

Data unified from five-plus source systems — ERP, banking, payroll, expense, and commission platforms — into a single reporting layer. One version of the truth.

Single reporting layer·Seven lines of business

System augmentation

A core ERP extended with a connected ecosystem — integration, close automation, expense management, and planning layers — rather than rip and replace.

What Kyle brings

M&A integration experience

Direct experience leading the financial integration of the Triplemint acquisition — an all-equity deal at a $350M-valued platform, executed in a fully distributed environment.

Multi-entity finance leadership

Led finance across a complex multi-entity structure and seven simultaneous lines of business — residential brokerage, franchising, title, mortgage, insurance, property management, and ancillary services — supporting U.S. and international operations, with deep fluency in intercompany accounting, consolidated reporting, and regulatory compliance.

ERP & systems transformation

Implemented, optimized, or operated an enterprise ecosystem including Oracle NetSuite, SAP, BlackLine, Celigo, Ramp, Concur, American Express Corporate, Drivetrain, ADP, and Profit Power — closing the gap between financial operations and technology infrastructure.

Distributed remote leadership

Led a 20+ person national and international finance team entirely remotely — with the governance rigor and communication discipline that distributed leadership demands.

“The work isn’t putting anyone into space or performing brain surgery — it’s finance and operations, and everyone on the team has a story worth telling.”
