“Sandy was referred to us by our auditors over the summer. When I took my job as the cost center accountant, I had very little knowledge and training about housing authority procedures. Sandy came in for about a week in person and was very helpful and we got a lot accomplished in the short span she was here. Since then I have been working with Sandy remotely still working to get things done. She is amazing to work with and makes time for me whenever I need her help with something. Without Sandy, I don’t know that I would have been able to figure out how to do what we have done or have gotten any confidence that I am doing my job correctly. She has been a great teacher and I would recommend her services to anybody!.”
