Hi, I’m Wassia

I'm the CFO at Access to Capital for Entrepreneurs, a leading CDFI based in Georgia, with over 15 years of experience across manufacturing, technology, pharmaceuticals, and the nonprofit sector.

I went from associate director of FP&A  to CFO in less than five years.

 

Everything I share is built around what made that possible and what it takes to build finance teams, systems, and governance that hold up as companies grow.

That work has been recognized widely.

 

I was named 2025 CFO of the Year by the Atlanta Business Chronicle, am a two-time CPA Practice Advisor 40 Under 40 honoree, and serve as Guest Faculty for the Wharton Online FP&A Certificate Program.

 

My insights have appeared in The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company, Accounting Today, and Strategic Finance Magazine.

Two Conversations I Keep Having:

With Finance Leaders

I host the Diary of a CFO, where I interview CFOs and business leaders on strategy, risk, and leadership. 

 

I also write about finance leadership and governance in small and mid-sized organizations: what works, what breaks, and how leaders manage growth and complexity without burning out.

 

 

With Founders and CEOs

Most finance problems in growing companies are visible long before they become expensive.

 

The wrong person in the role, the missing controls, the org structure that made sense at ten people but breaks at fifty.

 

I help you see what strong finance leadership and governance look like at your stage, so you can fix it before it costs you.

Are you on track to become an executive?
