Meet our team
Melissa, CPA, CGA
Growing up and being involved in a family dairy farm in a small community has allowed me to relate to the challenges that coincide with the agriculture industry. Outside of the hands-on experience, I have also volunteered on many different boards and volunteer groups that provided me with the knowledge of the business and financial side. With this experience and knowledge, it felt like a perfect fit to offer my services to the range of people and companies within the Peace Region.
After moving to Alberta in 2006, I received my CGA designation in 2010 as well as my Honours Bachelor of Commerce Degree, though I have been working in business and accounting since 2005 after receiving my college diploma. For 12 years, I worked on the corporate side of taxes and accounting, gaining a great amount of experience that I remain grateful for to this day. Being a mom of three little ones, obtaining the best work-life balance for our family has been a top priority. With this, I decided to take my learned experience by becoming incorporated in 2018 and working from my own office ever since.
