“Running a company is a lot of hard work and requires a lot of context switching. Finances are not my strong suite. Thankfully Michael was there to help. Michael helped me plan and enumerate our cash and expenses in our fast-paced non-profit startup. He’s fast, very careful, and conservative (in a good way). My only complaint is that I don’t get to work with him more often. ”
– David H, Executive Director, Open mHealth

“I have been working with Michael for the past four months on a very complex grant from the NYS Dept. of Parks and Recreation to renovate and modernize the Community House in Cherry Grove, Fire Island, New York. The Community House has been listed on the National and New York State Registers of Historic Places. This grant will mean that the House will remain for future generations to see and enjoy! Michael has had an attention to detail and follow-through that is bar-none. He is a self-starter and an excellent communicator! I would recommend him to manage any project, large or small!!”

He effectively helps clients manage their organization’s assets, understand cash flow realities, and make expense and human resource decisions accordingly. He demonstrates acumen for accounting, financial analysis and reporting, and a great desire to improve the user experience with understandability in the financial tools and information he provides. Michael’s knowledge ranges among international, domestic funders, as well as in the government and public sectors. I was constantly impressed with Michael’s ability to be dedicated, hard working, efficient, and on top of deadlines.”

“Michael was recommended as a consultant to support bookkeeping and financial management work. He was incredibly reliable, solution- and team-oriented in the work, always bringing a proactive approach and great insights and products to the table. His work was excellent, his communication open and clear, his responsiveness top tier, his commitment to the team palpable, and his willingness to learn and explore the mission, vision and values of EPIP joyful to share in through the work. I hope there are more ways to work together in the future and will always be grateful for what I learned from Michael and how we were able to work together.”

“As a small grassroots nonprofit with no finance background, we were overwhelmed—until we found Michael. He helped us catch up on IRS filings, improve our systems, and made the process simple and manageable. He’s efficient, patient, a great listener, and working with him has been a great experience.”
– Dr Robin H, Founder & Director, Pearl Remote Democratic High School
