Lisa J. Goecke, CPA, ABV, CFF

Lisa has been with us since 1990 and became a shareholder in 2002. Her main areas of focus within the firm are audit and accounting, business consulting and business valuation.

As if she didn't already have enough to do as a company shareholder with a full schedule of client work, Lisa decided to add business valuation to her resume several years ago. She prepared as only an auditor can - in a detailed, focused, and keen manner - while still finding time for her husband, three children, three dogs, and ten horses at their Vancouver-area home. Needless to say, she aced the long and tough certification exam in no time at all, and on her first try. Talk about dedication. Perhaps those qualities, along with her diverse advisory capabilities, are the reason she enjoys many long-term relationships with her clients.

Lisa grew up on a farm in Iowa and graduated from Iowa State University. She excelled in athletics and perhaps that accounts for the stamina she has in her busy life. She also finds time to be actively involved in the Vancouver community, spending several years on the Vancouver Chamber of Commerce's board of directors.
