• Provided management of the corporate office of approximately 35 people and an accounting/finance team of 7 individuals responsible for banking and general ledger transactions.

• Successfully identified issues with one of our core billing companies that had cost the organization over $1million in revenues since inception of the relationship. We completed a migration of this business along with over $20 million in accounts receivable to another company.

• Implemented Microsoft Dynamics CRM for our corporate office which streamlined and digitized our operations that were previously 100% paper without any interdepartmental communications.
