I'm Luke,
an analytical thinker
in the Netherlands

I'm a finance professional who moved to the Netherlands six years ago from Essex, England. What began as a career in accounting has evolved into a fascinating journey of analytical thinking and continuous learning—with Dutch language adventures providing ongoing entertainment for locals.

My approach to problems is deeply rooted in my CliftonStrengths profile. I'm driven to understand the "why" behind everything, whether it's Federal Reserve policy decisions, AI accounting structures, or the mysterious logic of Dutch grammar rules.

Currently working in FP&A with experience across accounting and shared service centers, I've developed a passion for business frameworks, process optimization, and data storytelling. This learning lab serves as my professional outlet for documenting discoveries, testing hypotheses, and sharing the analytical insights that emerge from my curiosity.

When I'm not diving into financial models or experimenting with new productivity methods, you'll find me cycling through the Dutch countryside.
