I’m David Machado

About

Hello! I’m David Machado. I operate at the intersection of business operations, finance, and data. I have extensive experience in financial analysis, accounting, and business operations. I augment this traditional financial experience with technical skills in applied data science. Through this combination of skills and experience, I connect the dots from raw data to financial and operational significance and synthesize this analysis into insights and strategic recommendations.

Philosophy

I am a systems thinker who seeks to understand businesses, processes, and information beyond the surface level. Here are some of my guiding principles:

READ DAILY

Regular reading offers exposure to new ideas and the opportunity to apply previously acquired knowledge or ideas in new context.

Embrace new trends. Develop new skills. Experiment patiently. Nurture emerging ideas.

IMPROVE CONTINUOUSLY

ALLOCATE RESOURCES OPTIMALLY

How will you measure your life? Effective personal resource allocation enables career satisfaction, happiness in family life, and a life lived with integrity.  

Being good is stateless.” Focus on what’s best for customers and everything else will fall into place.

BE GOOD
