My History
I was born in Houston, though I lived in New Mexico then Mississippi since my father was in the Air Force. Came back to Houston through my teen years, before spending some time in Savannah, GA. I've been home for quite a while, and currently live in the Pasadena area.
My goal is to take the skills that I have developed and put them to use for the benefit of our local small businesses.
Professional History
After completing my MBA, I went to work for a small business. My first task was to reconcile 7 years of back dated books. During this time, I rebuilt the system from the ground up. Then I established procedures and processes that led to 95% accurate entries, with the remaining 5% being corrected within 1 to 2 days.
