Rae, Cari’s daughter has assisted part-time since Cari opened her practice, thereby honing her skills and expertise over the years. In May 2020 Rae took the bold step and transitioned from her prior career choice of Early Child Education to join our bookkeeping team permanently. To reinforce and consolidate her knowledge in the field, she completed the Trifold Bookkeeper Advisor’s Bookkeeping Fundamentals Course (with honors) and subsequently passed the exam to become a CPB within Certified Professional Bookkeepers of Canada designation program. She is also certified in both Online and Desktop versions of Quickbooks. We are delighted that she has chosen this path, adding comfort in the knowledge that there is a succession plan in place for our client base.

Originally from Ontario, Melanie moved to BC and embarked on a long career as a landscape gardener. Seeking change, she returned to school to acquire certification in Office Administration, Accounting and Finance through Discovery College.  In order to keep pace with the rapidly changing world of technology, she continues to study and has earned her Quickbooks Online Pro-Advisor certification. The arts and travel are also her passions, and when she isn’t in the office, you might find her at the ocean, watching live music or theatre.
