If our experience is any indication, the recession may be waning (knock on wood). We’re excited to announce the arrival of new consultants, all ace finance and accounting gurus whose experience ranges from top-level IPO and M&A work to deep technical accounting and compliance, plus a good dose of nuts-and-bolts accounting.

Susan Alves: Susan really knows how to roll up her sleeves and get down to business in areas like general accounting, payroll, year-end close, revenue and SOX. She thrives in a start-up environment, and is diving right in with three clients in our emerging growth practice.

Stephen Ambler: Stephen has deep technical and compliance experience, and he knows the business of cleantech, high tech, medical, manufacturing and e-commerce inside and out. Formerly a chartered accountant with PwC and a large regional UK firm, Stephen’s strengths include SEC, FAS123R, IFRS, rev rec and M&A work, plus he’s lived through and helped engineer two IPOs.

Amy Lockyer: Amy recently spent a year in London working on IFRS F1 registration statements, and technical, complex accounting is what makes her get up in the morning. She’s been a CPA with PwC, and her expertise includes 10-K/10-Q, audit, SOX, debt restructuring and M&A work. And industries? Technology, health care, retail and entertainment, for starters. Her first RoseRyan gig is with a life sciences company.

Sandy White: Sandy, a finance pro with deep experience at technology companies, joins RoseRyan to focus on our rapidly growing XBRL practice. Her expertise includes fixed assets, payroll, corporate accounting, accounts receivable and treasury for companies such as NetApp and Sun. Sandy also gets into systems work: she has rolled up her sleeves with Oracle and is an Excel super user, so watch your step.

Sophie Yu: Sophie, an alum of EY in San Jose, most recently was a senior financial analyst at NetApp and a manager for SEC and revenue with PDF Solutions. She also has experience in SOX, rev rec, stock-based compensation and purchase accounting, among other areas. Sophie’s first RoseRyan gigs were in FAS123R and warrant work.

Meet the rest of the RoseRyan dream team.
