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.
Kim Robinson provided all our accounting and financial needs including the creation of the monthly management accounts. She was a great person to have in the company, very much part of the team. She is a very detailed and accurate accountant and at the same time a very positive person. If ever the opportunity arose, I would have no hesitation in employing her again.
Huge thanks to Beth for an incredibly timely introduction. The team she connected us with brought exactly the expertise we needed and jumped in right away to help get our project back on track.
It’s clear that Beth has cultivated a powerful network of knowledgeable, responsive, and collaborative professionals. We’re truly grateful for the support!
Operations Advisor
Rich has been a critical part of our success at Susteon. His integrity, work ethic and attention to detail are exemplary. Not only has he effectively managed the government accounting for multiple DOE and commercial projects, but he has also been a true CFO to guide us with cash flow, future investments and getting us through the Covid-19 downturn. He has been a great mentor and advisor to me. He is a pleasure to work with.
Head of Operations and Business Intelligence
Langdon & Company LLP has had the opportunity and pleasure of working with Alex Duhon on several mutual not-for-profit clients. Alex is diligent, hard-working and conscientious about her work product and about her commitment to the client. She always has the client’s best interest in mind. We have enjoyed getting to know Alex and always look forward to working with her.
When we first started working with Alex, we had just transitioned out of our fiscal sponsor and were establishing ourselves as an independent nonprofit. She guided us through building and refining our financial systems and processes, creating a foundation that continues to serve us as we’ve grown and our operations have become more complex. Working with her is truly a joy – she’s thoughtful, precise, and deeply committed to understanding the full context of every issue. Her expertise has brought our organization to a level of financial sophistication we could not have reached on our own, and she’s helped us navigate challenges with clarity and confidence. Thanks to her guidance, we had a clean audit in our first year, which speaks volumes about the quality of her work and her impact on our success.
John Griffin possesses a strong business acumen and a calm demeanor. Beginning with my initial interaction with John, he possessed an impressive resume and exuded confidence quickly leading us to hire him. He was instrumental in building our accounting function from the ground up while the company was in full operations. He became an integral member of our executive leadership team during a high growth period and provided exceptional support through our recent sale of the company. During the 5+ years he has supported our company, he has proven to be exceptionally valuable and exceeded our expectations.
Tim has truly been a transformative force for our business. He is so much more than a finance partner, as he has also been an invaluable resource, mentor, and thought and strategic partner dedicated to our success. Tim stepped into extremely challenging and difficult times – post-acquisition with a high amount of change and volatility.
His keen attention to detail and experience has helped me navigate through complex business and financial decisions. In times of uncertainty, Tim provided steady guidance, with strategic financial planning that have positioned us for growth. Beyond the numbers, Tim has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to our success by aligning financial strategies with a unique team fit and overarching business goals. His personalized approach distinguishes Tim as a true and invaluble partner.
Engaging Tim is the best decision I’ve made stepping in as a new CEO.
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.
