TRUSTED PARTNERS

It is my great pleasure to provide a recommendation for James Martin. He worked with our agency for a little over a year providing CFO services. His non-profit experience, knowledge of federal grant requirements, and audit skills made him a great fit to step in during a crisis. He worked closely with our team by guiding audits, teaching GAAP, improving accounting software use, and developing better policies/internal controls. The results were positive monitoring reports from our funders and a great private audit result. Jim helped with developing our Accounting team to the point that we are now ready for our new full-time CFO to take over! We appreciate all that he did and consider him a great friend of the agency.

I have complete confidence in his ability to analyze a complex situation and provide reasonable, actionable recommendations!
