“Professional”, “experienced”, “approachable”, “respectful” and “courteous” are five words used to describe Joanne.

A dancer and musician since childhood, Joanne has been creative from a very early age and is passionate about piecing together information in search of the best solution.  Her philosophy is to understand the complete picture before isolating the parts.  No matter what project she is involved in, it is her patience and determination that drives her to follow through and make sense of it all.

Joanne lives in Canada and is originally from the Vancouver area.  She started working in public practice in 1996 and obtained her accounting designation in 2001.  Upon certification, she immediately realized her life-long dream of starting her own firm where she could put her business skills and creativity to use.  Joanne is still licensed as a CPA in British Columbia and works with a network of accountants and other professionals who are always available as backup resources.

Joanne served as a volunteer on the board of directors of her children’s preschool for 11 years and believes in the value of supporting long-standing relationships.  In her spare time, she enjoys music, fitness, hiking, travel, and most of all, spending time with her family.

In addition to providing outstanding service, Joanne loves to help others as well as learn from them, and believes that no question is too little or insignificant.
