This company is a newly created company that is owned by my former EZPAWN/EZCORP (see below) employer. This start-up company was started in January of this year and I was brought onboard at beginning with the owner/founder to set-up the company books; provide internal audit and supervisory support; and to open bank accounts and establish all vendor accounts, create policies/procedures, employee manuals, advertising, Texas Workforce Accounts, IRS accounts, payroll reporting, Consumer Credit reporting, Sales Tax reporting and any and all other regulatory reporting.My initial responsibilities were to be to set up the above company for four pawnshops and to perform the accounting, auditing and human resource functions and general operating functions for these four shops and to work approximately 30 hours per week. Since the start of my employment, we started five other corporations, each holding a number of pawnshops or antique malls, which we acquired through bankruptcy court. We installed new computer hardware and software in the 8 pawnshops and 6 antique malls. I left employment here for a much higher pay and fantastic employment opportunity with REGUS Business Centers.

Plan, and perform audits of various local clients including, non-profits, banks, school districts, and construction and retail clients. I initially worked for the partners of this accounting firm during my employment with Grant Thornton Public accountants noted below. After leaving Grant Thornton, I went into the private sector of business and only after selling my ownership interests in Blue Whale Moving Company, did I decide to come back to Public Accounting.

Acted as CEO for Blue Whale and turned it around from losses in excess of $300,000 to profits in excess of $150,000. The former owner and founder of EZPAWN/EZCorp, and my former boss, referred me to the owners of this Company to turn the company around and prevent them from filing bankruptcy.Initially, I ran all the day-to-day business of dispatching the movers and drivers and overseeing any problems that occurred daily, in order to be "hands on" and to determine the problem areas and to learn the moving business. In addition to overseeing the daily operations, I also handled the hiring and firing, advertising, accounting and payroll. I answered and booked all customers move arrangements and handled all complaints and damages. I implemented internal audit procedures; an employee policy manual and I computerized the accounting.In 1996 I hired an Operations Manager and a Controller and I concentrated on the Human Resource aspect and Advertising/marketing, while continuing to budget and manage potential growth and development of the Company. I took Blue Whale through a Public Offering to raise money for future growth and development. I also became a 34% owner of the company and I remained solely in charge of customer complaints and damages and marketing and public relations.
