She has worked with Michele since 2003, and in that time has designed detailed job costing systems, converted payroll systems, reconciled QuickBooks POS to its QuickBooks retail companion, mastered QuickBooks for Mac and became proficient at ProSeries tax software.  She is a ready and able consultant, whom we are grateful to include on our team!
