Lauretta Finis is the brains behind your QuickBooks course. In April 2021 Lauretta was voted in the Insightful Accountant as being in the “Top 100 Pro-Advisors Globally”. This accolade was followed in October 2021 with the Insightful Accountant’s announcement of their official 2021 Pro-Advisors winners in Fort Worth Texas, where Lauretta was announced as “International ProAdvisor 2021”.
Lauretta’s career began in banking, back in the early 80s, in a country town in Victoria. After achieving early success, she then decided to move to Melbourne and climbed up the corporate ladder to become a manager for personal and business clients at one of Australia’s “Big 4” banks.
