Upon returning Michelle spent a few years as manager of a gift retail store before moving to Winnipeg. There she worked in the hotel industry as front office manager before she had her two children and became a stay at home mom. After 10 years of sunflower fields, and socials, Michelle’s longing for the mountains brought her back to Calgary.

Starting out as the receptionist, she began to help the firm with data entry and started preparing personal tax returns in 2010, after taking various personal tax courses. Her role has since evolved to also include the duties of an accounting technician and office manager and most important, she is the one who keeps the candy jar stocked.
