I have been in public accounting for 39 years; the last 27 have been spent with Dennen & Simons LLC. It is my pleasure to serve the tax, accounting and payroll needs of small businesses, and I enjoy helping people achieve success in their business life. I am married to Aileen and have three grown children, a beautiful granddaughter and another granddaughter on the way. Outside of work, my interests include: the Bears, the Blackhawks, the Cubs, golfing and anything related to barbecue.
In 2003, I joined the team of Dennen & Simons LLC on a part-time basis. I assist with payroll duties and also take care of the administrative needs of the company. I have been married to Steve for 33 years, and we have three grown children, a beautiful granddaughter and a second granddaughter on the way. I also work as a freelance writer, with a bi-weekly column published in Chicago Tribune's Pioneer Press newspaper. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with friends, reading, crocheting and playing mah jongg.
I have been with Dennen and Simons LLC for 9.5 years. Prior to coming to work here, I worked for a different accounting firm. I've been married for 27 years and have a daughter starting her first year of college. Outside of work, I love to bake, spend time with my family and, when the weather permits, go camping.

Prior to Dennen & Simons LLC, I was a legal assistant and then a stay-at-home mom for 14 years. I decided to return to the work force when all of my children were in school full time; I have been at Dennen & Simons now for 14 years. I am married for 33 years with three children. Outside of work, I love to cook, am a huge football fan, love spending time with my family, volunteering at church and also at my childrens' old grammar and high schools. I also want to thank Steve and Aileen for giving me the opportunity to continue to work remotely. We are enjoying life in Idaho.
