Halen Strong

I'm currently a Controller at Parkridge Inc., where I lead financial reporting and forecasting during construction phases. I streamline budgeting procedures and construction draws while preparing balance sheets, cash flow reports, income statements, and payroll for three employees.

At A+P CPAs, I prepare and review federal and state returns for individuals, partnerships, S-Corporations, C-Corporations, and tax-exempt entities. I also research tax-saving strategies, communicate with the IRS and other government organizations on clients' behalf, mentor junior associates, and support audits, reviews, and compilations.

Previously, I maintained general ledgers, reconciled accounts, processed payroll, and filed quarterly payroll tax reports at Cook Martin Poulson PC. As an accountant intern at UMB Fund Services, I helped prepare financial statements for hedge funds, private equity funds, and fund-of-funds clients.

I'm a licensed real estate appraiser, QuickBooks certified, and preparing to sit for the CPA exams. My MAcc focused on taxation, with a minor in real estate.
