The Strategic Performance Management program forces your team to focus on the critical or key factors which make for success. It also requires managers to think long-term instead of being totally absorbed in the day-to-day aspects of a job.

Kenneth Browne is a graduate of Pacific Union College in Angwin, California. After graduating with a BBA in 2014, he returned to the college to take on various full-time accounting roles. He has worked as a bookkeeper at a local winery and in his spare time volunteers to help low income families file their taxes. When he is not at the office, you are likely to find Kenneth watching football or experiencing the best of Napa Valley via local trails and dining establishments.

Lisa Akrawi is a recent graduate of Walla Walla University where she earned a BBA with a concentration in accounting. She was drawn to accounting by her interest in numbers, organization, and balance. The child of a multi-cultural family, Lisa sees accounting as another specialized language to learn and apply. The symmetry of accounting also appeals to her overall sense of aesthetics which she applies in her many creative pursuits. As a former student at Pacific Union College, Lisa is happy to be back in the Napa Valley which she appreciates as the “perfect combination of city and country without being terribly suburban.” She is a frequent traveler and hopes to return to Venice, Italy for a chance to learn more about its unique experiences.

Ina Larot is an Enrolled Agent (EA) with more than 15 years of experience as a tax accountant. She began her career with 9 years at a Big Four CPA firm where she specialized in trust taxation before moving on to local CPA firms where she expanded her experience to include business entities and individual taxes. A fervent traveler and an excellent cook, Ina has a daily adventure navigating her way across Jameson Canyon and up Highway 29. In her spare time, Ina is working to pass the CPA exam, when she is not being (pleasantly) distracted by her granddaughter.

Rebekah Kramer, CPA is a manager at Brotemarkle Davis & Co. specializing in assurance services and business consulting. She is originally from Napa, California and is a Justin-Sienna High School alumnus. She is a graduate of Concordia University, Irvine where she majored in Business Administration with a dual emphasis in Marketing and Accounting. She spent three years working for a Southern California accounting firm before returning to the Napa Valley. While she may not find many opportunities to apply her SoCal yacht-counting expertise (she once had to count yachts docked in ports from San Diego to Newport), her diverse audit skills honed from working with customers in Oil and Gas, Manufacturing, and Real Estate are a big plus. Rebekah first stretched her entrepreneurial muscles when she founded a chapter of co-ed business fraternity, Delta Sigma Pi, at Concordia. She hopes to apply what she learned not only to her role as an auditor but also to some day opening an animal shelter. When she is not busy auditing, you might find Rebekah exploring a new trail or revisiting one of her favorite national parks – Denali in Alaska. Rebekah is a CPA licensed by the California Board of Accountancy.

After earning a BA in Accounting from Golden Gate University, Leigh Meyers applied her talents to both public accounting and industry. She is an Enrolled Agent (EA) which is a designation issued by the IRS for tax practitioners who pass their examination and meet other requirements for ongoing training. She has worked with attorneys and vineyard management companies in the Napa Valley and comes to the wine industry with great perspective and an inherited appreciation for farming. Leigh says she was drawn to accounting because of her math skills which have always come easy to her. She works on the tax team and enjoys "untangling messes". She is an equal opportunity animal lover and has two cats and two dogs. When she is not at work, you will find her bicycling around the Napa Valley in what we can only imagine are the most stylish of outfits.

Janice Conte has a diverse background with experience ranging from high end hospitality to high volume real estate transactions to high stress escrow management. She knows her way around a general ledger and knows how to keep her 4 grandchildren entertained. On top of that, she always has a smile on her face and is the first person you see when you enter our office and the first voice you hear when you give us a call. When she is not spending time with her own family, Janice serves as a Napa Court Appointed Special Advocate through CASA, which advocates for the best interests of abused and neglected children who, through no fault of their own, have become dependents of the court.
