I became a QuickBooks ProAdvisor in 2009. A CPA firm in Lampasas referred me to Family Medicine Clinic for their move from PeachTree to Quickbooks. Once that job was complete, the clinic administrator offered me the job of HR and A/P manager, and after a couple of years, I became Business Office Manager.
