I have more than 20 years of experience, which includes serving as the controller for an internationally respected commercial real estate investment, management and brokerage firm. I was responsible for all aspects of accounting for the operational divisions, which included internet services, real estate development, property management, brokerage services, and club activities. Since it was an international company there was the need to report in both domestic and international currencies. I specifically utilized the cross-currency functionality of software to report multi-currencies out of one system (versus dual entry), ultimately saving the company hundreds of thousands in man power. However, after creating a well-oiled machine, I got bored and needed a change.The idea of running my own business and doing exactly what I love has always been my dream. In 2011, I had the opportunity to purchase Accounting & Technology Solutions from the previous owner. Accounting & Technology Solutions is a certified reseller of the software Microsoft Dynamics SL (formerly known as Solomon). I then merged Accounting & Technology Solutions into Devine Consulting to encompass my accounting professional expertise with the software side of the business.
