Bio
Kimberlyn Diemer
I have worked with Anne while she was Controller at two mid to advanced-stage emerging growth companies. Anne's professional and level-headed demeanor, consistent attention to detail and timelines, and team management skills made Anne a pleasure to work with. I could always count on Anne's follow-through and highest regard for accuracy and ethics. I would recommend her highly and would welcome any opportunity to work with her again in the future.

Anne was a very organized manager and highly dependable. She worked on my team for more than 5 years and did a terrific job managing her group. Our finance and accounting teams worked well under Anne's control, and our annual audit process always went smoothly.
