I began my career in Big 4 with Arthur Young (now Ernst & Young) after graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Accounting. I specialized in Financial Services and leveraged that to a position of Manager/AVP of FP&A and Accounting at Norwest Investment Services (now Wells Fargo). With extensive roles involving ERP software and service implementations, I parlayed my experience to become Senior Financials Principal Instructor at PeopleSoft Inc./Oracle Corporation and Senior Financials Learning Consultant at Lawson Software.
Extensive experience in Accounting, Finance, Systems, and Client Service gives me the unique ability to quickly and accurately grasp what a business needs to accomplish their goals. I have enjoyed establishing and leveraging business partnerships to achieve results, and have gained valuable experience in best practices and process performance improvements. The common thread in my professional experience is that I love working with people, which is a great fit in my role as Director of Client Services. In this capacity, I am able to offer the depth of experience and breadth of network necessary for partnering top talent with great companies.

Growing up in a small town on Lake Superior, I came to appreciate four seasons and the splendor of the outdoors. My family owns a cabin on an inland lake where we gather to enjoy each other and the natural beauty of the Chequamegon forest. In an effort to escape to warmer climates during mid-winter, I travel to the islands of the Caribbean. I have made lifelong friends during this annual trip which adds to the riches of my travels. Minneapolis has been my home for many years and I appreciate the vast cultural playground at my backdoor. You can always find me enjoying theater performances, concerts, and various art fairs!
My greatest joy comes from other people. I have an incredible family and many strong friendships. When people cross our path, the imprint can be permanent.

A smile is contagious. Kindness and compassion are powerful. It takes a second to add a kind word and make someone's day. Having a sense of purpose in your work is truly a blessing. |
