Though we were not ready to hire a full-time CFO, we sure were glad to have the assistance of Alex Duhon every week. Alex served as CFOH’s part-time controller, keeping the numbers in line so we could continue to fly kids. We loved having her as part of our crew!
Our CPA firm identified that our company required more sophisticated financial oversight and strategic planning in order to continue to grow; services which they could not provide. We began collaborating with John Autrey as our part time / virtual CFO in 2016 and later added Betty Larose to review our financial processes and current business strategies. John and Betty were able to fine tune what we had while not disrupting the core processes and tools in place. We count heavily on the planning and advice we receive from Betty and John, and they are integral to our continued success.
We believe that adding the Rankin McKenzie team was one of the best strategic moves that we have made. On a more personal note, the entire team feels that Betty and John are a great addition to our work family.
By engaging Rankin McKenzie, we gained a dedicated executive who knows and is passionate about our business. As a result of Robert’s performance, he became a critical member of our management team and the company. Rankin McKenzie was a long-term member of our executive team and proved to be essential in helping our business develop and grow.

Due to an unexpected medical situation, our CFO was going to miss 2 to 6 weeks of work – with little ability to communicate with us at all. We contacted Rankin McKenzie and within a couple of days met with Angie, and she felt like a perfect fit. She spent a few days with our CFO and quickly got up to speed. It was a great comfort having her take over the day to day finances for a couple of months until our CFO was able to return to work full-time.
Kathy Morris has worked with HexaTech for the past 13 years as a fractional CFO. Even though she worked part time over the years, she has always been a critical member of our management team, and a key contributor to HexaTech’s success. Kathy is dependable, responsive, extremely knowledgeable in all facets of accounting and finance, and most of all has been a pleasure to work with. When we were acquired by Stanley Electric in 2020, Kathy was our point person for all of the due diligence that was required. I can honestly say that without Kathy, this acquisition probably would not have happened. When we were asked by Stanley to hire a full time Accounting Manager, Kathy led the search, identified a great candidate which we hired, and then trained that individual to ensure a seamless transition. I would strongly recommend Kathy to any company looking for a part time CFO. Thank you to Rankin McKenzie for supporting HexaTech from its inception through its acquisition. Your support for the past 16 years has been critical to our success!
Lisa has really helped get our business over the bump. Her experience in owning and operating a small business has been exceptionally valuable to our expansion. She has an excellent ability to understand the needs of the business owner and the direction they want to take their business. She is wonderful while training other employees and helping guide them during the learning process. She has made my life so much easier and can somehow even know what I am going to need before I even need it. I believe we are lucky to have her knowledge and expertise and am grateful to Rankin McKenzie for pairing us together.
When I joined AgBiome Innovations as the commercial director in 2013, Andrew was already on board as the CFO. He proved to be a valuable asset in numerous ways during the next 6 years that I worked with him. He has excellent communication skills; always used clear concise messaging to my group regarding budgeting and financial requirements and results. Andrew is very knowledgeable of the financial reporting requirements for startups, and his interest in our business was very useful. Andrew also assisted my team on a product and company acquisitions effort, as well as a multiple equity funding rounds. My team was very comfortable in working with Andrew and had a tremendous amount of respect for him. Finally, Andrew makes people feel very comfortable in work situations which in turn makes them want to help him in any way possible.
