Veronica help'd save Fisher roughly $50K in 6 months through diligent and persistent vendor disputes, reimbursements and consolidation. She is also very skilled at managing vendor relationships involving provisioning or discontinuing Telecom or ISP services, reviewing and managing contracts and negotiations, and keeping financial data organized and relevant. I enjoyed working with Veronica not only for her expertise and job knowledge, but for her very "will do" and friendly personality. I would hire Veronica in a heartbeat.
