Delivering Results

Our company was SORELY in need of book cleanup and we interviewed several CPAs. When we finally contacted Michele, we knew right away that she was the CPA for us. Her email follow up is impeccable, her level of transparency is refreshing (important characteristic when dealing with money) and she is kind. If you are looking for a CPA who will walk with you through your financial process, Michele is the one.
