Strategic finance leadership for growing organizations.
15+ years of CFO-level experience at the intersection of strategy, operations, and results, with a track record spanning P&L ownership, M&A, and enterprise transformation in complex, regulated environments. I bring a bias toward action and a record of getting teams, processes, and finances unstuck.
Schedule an Intro Call →Most clients come to me at one of these moments.
You're running finance yourself, or it's split across people without the bandwidth or background for it, and it's starting to show.
Reports exist, but nobody trusts them enough to make a call. Forecasts miss. Board decks take days to pull together.
A funding round, an audit, a leadership gap, a crisis: you need someone credible in the room now, not in three months.
The business has scaled past what spreadsheets and instinct can manage, but you're not ready for, or don't need, a full-time hire.
Any of this sound familiar? Here's how I can help.
Financial leadership built around where your business is today.
Ongoing, embedded financial leadership as your CFO of record. P&L oversight, cash flow management, forecasting and budgeting, KPI and board-ready reporting, and the strategic judgment of a full-time CFO without the full-time cost. You can list me as your CFO to your board, lenders, and investors.
Schedule an Intro Call →The same strategic ground as fractional CFO work: planning, forecasting, cash flow, KPI reporting, financial decision-making, delivered as advisory input rather than an embedded leadership role. A lighter-touch relationship for businesses that want an experienced second opinion at the table.
Schedule an Intro Call →Fixed-scope, fixed-timeline work: due diligence, data room review, interim or crisis coverage, financial model builds, one-time strategic analysis. Open to businesses of any size or stage.

Hi, I'm Kathryn Moreland, MBA, a strategic finance leader with over 15 years of experience serving as Chief Financial Officer for organizations ranging from mission-driven nonprofits to growing private institutions.
I hold an MBA from Johns Hopkins Carey Business School and bring the financial rigor of a seasoned CFO together with hands-on operational experience from my time as COO, connecting the numbers to the real decisions that move a business forward.
My track record includes improving cash projection accuracy to under 2% variance, securing an 80% increase in capital funding through strategic partnership negotiations, and consistently turning financial complexity into clear, actionable priorities.
Based in Austin, I'm active in the community, serving on the boards of University Federal Credit Union and Texans Care for Children, the finance committee of Austin Sunshine Camp, and as an alumna of Leadership Austin. I believe in building genuine, long-term relationships with every client I serve.
For engagements that call for it, I bring in trusted specialists in bookkeeping, tax strategy, and administrative support. You get senior-level leadership plus the right hands for the details.
Every engagement starts with an introductory conversation: for us to understand your business, and for you to understand how I work. I take on a limited number of clients at a time, and pricing reflects the complexity and depth of the engagement, so it's scoped after that conversation rather than listed here.
Real feedback from clients I've advised.
"Kathryn has been the financial voice of reason for our growing community, and honestly, so much more than that. She doesn't just hand over reports, she helps us understand what the data is telling us."
"What stands out most is her ability to bring clarity to situations with both an unparalleled analytical acumen and heart. She doesn't just report the numbers, she uncovers what they mean, identifies opportunities others miss, and develops practical solutions that move the business forward."
