I have been working with Acumatica at Haun Welding Supply, a 4th generation business in the northeastern United States, for about 7 years now. I have had the pleasure to work with all aspects of the Acumatica product, providing insight on how to get the most out of the software while enhancing the business. Haun selected Acumatica due to the unique business requirements and the ability to adapt Acumatica as our line of business software was not on the market with how we would need to use it. I have been a member of the developer MVP community since 2019, after joining my first Hackathon in Houston.Being a member of the Developer MVP Community (Now branded the Developer All-Stars) has allowed me to be a part of a team to collaborate and share insights where I would not have otherwise been able to due to being on a small team. I enjoy sharing solutions that I have developed with the community, as I have benefited from others sharing as well. That is one of the things that I love about th

Shelton Waggener is President of American Asphalt Repair & Resurfacing, the premier flatworks construction company in Northern California.  Now in its 41st year, the firm has grown from a small Slurry Seal company to over 180 employee owners, working across multiple trades including Asphalt, Concrete, Slurry, Seal Coat and Striping to deliver to its many longtime customers. Waggener joined American Asphalt in 2018 to lead a business transformation resulting in a 70% increase in company revenues while moving from an all paper-based model to a digital one focused on collaboration and ensuring information available to every member of the team – on the road, at the job site or from the office.  Those changes have also supported the transition to an employee-owned enterprise where each member of the team shares in the companies advancement.Prior to joining American Asphalt, Waggener served several decades in leadership positions across multiple industries, including as Senior Vice Presi

My journey with ERP systems kicked off early when I was tinkering with my dad's customizations on the MAS 500 platform. My dad emigrated from South Africa to the Bay Area and got into ERP systems early in his career, and watching him work with these systems really sparked my interest. After a stint as a project manager in an aerospace tooling firm, I eventually circled back to my true passion: software. A project for a soon-to-be Acumatica user in the Bay Area blew me away with the platform’s flexibility and power, and I've been hooked ever since.I've been working on Acumatica since 2018 and have been flying solo as an independent developer, crafting integrations for a range of industries—from genetic testing to insurance services. Nowadays, I run a small dev firm called Contou Consulting, but I still get plenty of hands-on development opportunities.Being an MVP really aligns with my approach as an independent developer. I love helping folks who are just a few steps behind me by sharin

I work for Gilcrest Manufacturing, a global leader in cleanroom panel manufacturing. I joined as an apprentice in October of 2022, with no knowledge of IT or business systems, the implementation of Acumatica was in the works, but we eventually went live in April of 2023. We had a fair few teething issues and with the combination of our VAR and internal team we overcame them and are seeing the benefits of implementing Acumatica.First, I was only a departmental superuser for the Contracts team, in which my base role is, delivering training on the system as well as performing my duties as a contracts coordinator which included managing contracts for various pharmaceutical clients, and drawing cleanrooms using our panels in AutoCAD. My involvement with Acumatica grew rapidly, and by January of 2024, I was the business lead for Acumatica, searching for process improvements and exposing bottlenecks for this purpose. In March of 2024, I started a Business Analysis apprenticeship to aid my ski

Hello! I am Jeff, the COO of Tiger Companies, a distribution company based in NJ. My position keeps me busy overseeing various aspects of our operations. My primary responsibilities include overseeing our warehouse, logistics, ERP, and technology systems.One of the most exciting parts of my job has been learning about Acumatica and the many ways it can help us. I wasn't familiar with any ERP before we began using Acumatica; I thank my current knowledge to this community. I read almost every new question posted and use the answers provided to expand my knowledge. I live in a suburb an hour away from New York City. I am married and have four wonderful children.

Greetings, Acumatica Community! I’m Laura Barber.  I am so excited to have earned 4 consecutive MVP awards for my volunteer work in the Community.  (I have answered more posts than anyone else in the galaxy – answering a high volume of questions is how I earned my MVP awards.)  It has been my great pleasure to assist others by posting ideas and answers as a way of “giving back” to the ERP industry, where I’ve spent my entire career.The call center of Solomon Software is where I started many years ago.  After leaving Solomon Software, I worked for eight different Partner organizations and also worked for a brief time at Acumatica, Inc.  At first, I managed Technical Support services for clients, later transitioning to Training and Implementations.  Acumatica first entered my life in 2013.   In November 2025, I started a new position at WM Synergy.The best part of my job is encouraging beginners and helping them understand their new accounting systems.

Hello everyone! My name is James Harris, a Solutions Architect from Salt Lake City, Utah. My journey with Acumatica began in 2018 when our company was searching for a modern ERP solution to replace an outdated system. What started as a mission to find a better platform quickly turned into a deep, ongoing involvement—not just in implementing Acumatica, but in shaping how businesses leverage it for success.With a background in IT, Project Management, and Military Networking Technologies, I spent years optimizing global tech stacks, progressing from Systems Engineer to IT Director. Over time, my experience evolved alongside Acumatica itself. I’ve led full-scale implementations across Manufacturing, Distribution, and Field Services, gaining hands-on expertise as the platform expanded. Prior to Acumatica, I worked extensively with QuickBooks, Dynamics, Sage, and NetSuite, giving me a broad perspective on ERP systems.Today, at my third company running Acumatica, I serve as a Solutions Archit

Hi, everyone!   I am a Staff Software Engineer at SPS Commerce.  I have been in the ERP space since 2006, and I have been an Acumatica Developer since 2013.  Having worked on multiple ERPs, Acumatica is by far my favorite, and it has come a long way since I first saw it.As my work with Acumatica grew, I became a more active member of the Acumatica community, getting involved via blog posts, answering community questions, giving occasional talks, and participating in hackathons.  My efforts have been generously received and I was invited to become an MVP. I have had great experiences and made friends as a result of “putting myself out there” in the community.In my personal life, I am very blessed to be married to a wonderful woman and to have two amazing kids.  My list of hobbies these days mostly revolves around my small children, meaning that I am very well read on the topics of dinosaurs* and whales* and am reckoned an intimidating force in the arts of Four Square and Mario Kart***.

Hi Everyone!I'm Michael Shirk, a Solutions Developer at Pine View Buildings, based out of Statesville, NC.We're an Acumatica customer - a manufacturer of highly customizable storage buildings, with our own sales and distribution networks. I've been with Pine View Buildings since 2019, and have worked with Acumatica in some capacity since 2021.As a developer for a smaller Acumatica customer, my responsibilities include meeting with department heads and other stakeholders to review opportunities for process improvements or entirely new processes, developing the customizations to support those processes, and then providing user training and overseeing implementation.Whether it's a small report or GI, or a complex integration with an external SAAS platform, it's fulfilling being at a small enough company to take ownership of projects from discovery through implementation.

I appreciate being recognized with another MVP award! I am currently (as of writing this post) ranked 4th highest Community contributor of all time.

Hello all,I decided to write a very concise summary about myself. My name is Reza Aghaei. I am an accounting professional who has worked in manufacturing and construction industry several years.I have known Acumatica since 2019 and have used it as an end user and an independent consultant/customizer capacity. Aside from lots of specific customizations, I have created a few generic packages on Approval Workflow, Projects WIP, Cost Projection and Attachment Downloads that I license annually.If I can convince myself to shut down my laptop, most likely I will find myself in nature away from crowds. I love challenging hikes, the climb and the quiet of the remote locations.  ​@aaghaei Moderator notes:MVP profiles are closed to comments in order to provide the respective MVP with a page they can use for their brand.
