Expertise

I can answer most general questions, including formatting, shortcuts, pivot tables etc. I have just started using macros, so vba is not my strong suit. I also enjoy explaining the solution at the questioners level of understanding. I am an accountant by trade, so that is my primary area of expertise, but I am willing to tackle just about anything.

Experience in the area

I've been working in excel for 15+ years

Education/Credentials

BA - Business '96, CPA '98
