Meet Megan Friesen our Acumatica Community Featured Member for July 2024. It’s great to have you as part of the Acumatica Community
Here is a little bit about Megan:
I grew up and still live in Calgary, AB, Canada and work for Contego Software Solutions as a Business Systems Analyst. In my role I wear many hats including Sales, Implementation, Training, and Support.
I went to school in Calgary and started out with a degree in Business Administration and from there I completed my CGA designation (now CPA). One of the courses I enjoyed the most during my studies was a course on ERPs and system change management. But that’s not where my career started. I started out in the oil and gas services industry, first in accounts payable, then corporate accounting, and finally in project accounting. After being a part of two system conversions first from SAP to JE Edwards and then from JDE to Oracle I was fully bitten by the ERP bug and made the switch over to Contego in 2019.
My accounting background has been a great fit as I work with our Acumatica clients. My primary focus and area of expertise is finance, project accounting, distribution, and reporting but I’ve worked with pretty much every edition of Acumatica now. I’m surrounded by a great team at Contego, and we’ve really got a broad background of experience. I always appreciate the knowledge that I gain from other community members here.
Being from Calgary, we’re about an hour from the mountains so I love to get out and go camping, hiking, and skiing in my spare time. I’ve also got two amazing little boys that keep my life full of excitement! My husband and I will be celebrating our 10th anniversary later this summer.
