Meet the Team

Every member of the Express Consulting Team has real-world accounting experience ranging from former practicing CPA’s to holding positions in private accounting.

  • As the founder of Express, Iris appreciates that it isn’t about technology – it’s about the people. It has been the journey one can only hope for – fulfilling work, great clients who appreciate us, and co-workers you are proud to have on your team.

    Our clients’ comfort and excitement for new tools is what we strive to support. It is because of this dedication that we are celebrating our 33rd anniversary and looking forward to welcoming many more.
