Access the financial expertise your company needs to thrive.

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!

I’ve worked with Jeff for over 20 years across multiple companies and industries, and he has consistently proven himself as a trusted, high-impact leader. At Walz Group, a California-based tech-enabled operational business that was recognized in the Inc. 500 list of fastest-growing private companies in the US for 3 consecutive years, Jeff played a pivotal role on the executive team.  He led both operations and finance through a period of rapid growth, restructured the business, strengthened its operational foundations and significantly improved its financial accounting and reporting processes.

We partnered again when he led operational and financial due diligence on data platform ventures, serving as fractional CFO for a SaaS company that grew from a Raleigh-based startup to operate in multiple countries on multiple continents, supporting it all the way through its successful acquisition a few years later by a Global Fortune 500 company.

Jeff melds operational excellence with deep financial expertise, and is known for his tremendous reliability, relentless work ethic, and exemplary ethical and business integrity making him an invaluable partner to any leadership team.

Mike has been a pleasure to work with and has brought lots of great ideas to our growing company. His laid-back personality blends well with our team. What I appreciate most about Mike is his willingness to teach and ensure that everyone understands the “why” behind what we’re doing.

When DHIC had a sudden opening for our Controller position, Betty Larose stepped in, took on the role with minimal guidance, and immediately proved how much of a self-starter she is with learning about our industry and nuances of tax credit and bond funding. She also took on some specialized reporting required by our funders, figured out the system on her own, and created a much better method for handling the process.  Betty fits in perfectly as a member of our small finance team of six, always having a pleasant attitude and ready to help in any area we need it.  Her work ethic is exceptional and that, combined with her experience and the quality of her work deliverables, makes Betty the perfect partner for our team.

We had the pleasure of working with Bethany Hong from Rankin McKenzie, and she was an exceptional asset to our team. Bethany quickly mastered our software, conducted thorough financial analyses, and significantly improved our overall performance. Her professionalism, friendliness, and seamless integration into our team were outstanding. Although her contract was short-term, Bethany made a lasting positive impact. We highly recommend Bethany and the excellent services provided by Rankin McKenzie.

Kathy began serving as Biospatial’s fractional CFO during our first year in business in 2017. After working with Kathy for 5+ years now, I believe the decision to contract Kathy was one of the best decisions we have made since founding. The success of a business hinges on successful execution in all parts of the business. Kathy has successfully managed all of our activities related to AR/AP, accounting, taxes, employee benefits, banking, and cash management, including helping us to navigate periods where cash was lean. Kathy is always responsive, thorough, and efficient. She is easy to work with and enjoys to have fun and laugh. It would be tough to find a fractional CFO who delivers a higher value than Kathy continues to deliver for Biospatial.

Due to the growth of our firm over many years, we needed to improve numerous processes especially in our accounting/finance department in order to continue our success or I knew we would eventually retract. Our Rankin McKenzie Partner joined us at RKA approximately 4 years ago and brought to us a wealth of experience from various industries which helped to improve not only our accounting/finance team, but they also played a key role on our leadership team. They helped our firm greatly by developing and mentoring our Director of Accounting and Finance, recommended numerous growth strategies for his team, implemented processes to expedite our month-end closing, improved our reporting, started a new budgeting/forecasting process, took an active role as an ex-officio board member, and was also extremely beneficial to me during the acquisition of our firm by a private equity backed company. Our Partner was a steady hand during several difficult situations and provided good guidance which helped me in my decision making. I appreciate everything that our Partner has done not only for me but especially for our firm.

Beth Mullaney is thoughtful in utilizing her network to benefit others. In the end, she can listen, identify and find a solution to a problem. Regardless of whether they be short or long term solutions, she is engaged throughout the process to ensure that everyone is happy with the outcome and that there will be a true benefit to the client. She is strategic, highlights her team, and has successfully grown the service offerings along with becoming a partner in the organization. She is a visionary that can take on implementation and execution. I am glad Beth is part of my network and someone I respect for guidance.

Jaye has been an invaluable and impactful resource for us. Although she stepped in to support us during a staff transition period, she was able to quickly get up to speed with current systems, processes, and procedures and provided trustworthy and skilled support. While the new Finance and HR director acclimated, she helped maintain all the financial functions and meet important deadlines. She reviewed our existing structures and policies and has stayed on to implement changes and provide guidance and insightful feedback. She has a great grasp and able to articulate big picture needs and goals while being willing to get in the weeds, doing anything she can to support. She cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to help them succeed. She’s a pleasure to work with, and I am grateful for her partnership and mentorship.

Ray Szafranski has become an invaluable extension of our leadership team. He learned our business remarkably quickly and consistently provides timely, insightful financial analysis that helps us make better strategic decisions.

One of Ray’s most impactful contributions has been developing a comprehensive five-year financial model that gives us greater visibility and confidence in our long-term planning. He also provides meaningful insight into our budgets and forecasts, helping identify areas that require additional focus and enabling more informed decision-making.

Beyond his technical expertise, Ray has been an outstanding mentor to our finance team, helping team members grow professionally and prepare for the next stages of their careers. His deep knowledge of international business structures, tax strategy, and compliance has been especially valuable as we navigate complex cross-border considerations. He brings a practical, solutions-oriented approach that helps us remain compliant while thoughtfully minimizing tax exposure for both the company and its owners.

Ray combines exceptional financial expertise with a collaborative, people-focused approach, making him a trusted advisor and an integral part of our leadership team. I highly recommend him to any organization seeking a strategic financial partner who delivers both technical excellence and practical business insight.
