I cannot say enough good things about Audra. Her work ethic is impeccable, her knowledge of corporate and estate planning matters is thorough, and she is a thoughtful, caring individual. Any projects we worked on she would dive right in and do what it took to bring it to completion. She is truly an asset to any organization lucky enough to have her, and I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again without hesitation.
