Accounting, financial statements, etc. can be so overwhelming and stressful for so many people. Analyzing and breaking down those documents into terms that our clients can understand is very rewarding. It gives them peace of mind and allows us the opportunity to have a positive impact on their organization’s success.
Janet Brown | Manager
The variety of work keeps every day exciting. I enjoy getting to work with a lot of different people and learning new ways to accomplish the same goals of client success.
Rachel Marino | Firm Administrator
Faulk & Winkler was my first job right after college graduation almost 13 years ago. I feel extremely fortunate to have landed in such a wonderful environment fresh out of college. At this company, I have grown my career with the help and encouragement of great leaders who have my best interests in mind. I have stayed because at this firm, people are the priority; both the people who work here and the clients we serve.
