Financial Models (120+) - Useful and Usable Logic

Description
Since 2012, I have honed my expertise in Excel, starting my career in accounting before transitioning to specialized financial model consulting in 2015. Over the years, I've tackled some of the most challenging and complex projects in the field. This experience has enabled me to identify and create repeatable, high-value financial model templates essential for businesses. These templates, born out of decades of modeling experience, are designed to meet the diverse needs of finance professionals.
