Bio
Tracy Scott, SPHR
I worked with Deidre for approximately three years while she worked at Ryobi. There is a close relationship between payroll and accounting, so my team worked together with her team on a weekly basis. I found Deidre to be very knowledgeable and responsive. Issues were resolved quickly and professionally; the resolution was complete and correct. I would recommend Deidre based on my own work experience with her.
Susan Baker
I highly recommend Deidre Frye to any company looking to hire a tremendously strong accounting professional who is both ambitious and full of initiative. Deidre and I worked together at Ryobi Die Casting for 5 years where she reported to me in the positions of Staff Accountant and later, a promotion to General Accounting Supervisor. I witnessed firsthand her commitment to learn and grow and her dedication to take on more challenging work in order to develop into an even stronger accounting professional. She had exposure to all levels of the P&L and Balance Sheet from top to bottom and held her own when it came to analyzing and communicating final results. Deidre is extremely reliable, provides unyielding support and has a strong sense of professionalism. She was highly respected among her peers as well as senior management at Ryobi Die Casting. I would, without a doubt, hire Deidre again if the opportunity were ever to arise.
