Annette Bourassa
CPA, CFDS, CCS, AFC
I have spent my working life fulfilling roles in an accounting capacity, both in industry and in accounting firms. I enjoy the variety in the work, but truly value the relationships with clients and the satisfaction of assisting business owners.
Along with a fulfilling career, I achieve true balance in life through appreciating the outdoors. Hiking and cycling provide the much needed exercise and tranquility. It is something I am blessed to share with family and friends.
The balance is complete when committing myself to the service of others. I’m a proud supporter of local charities such as:
Dress for success – an organization committed to assisting women re-enter the work force through various services including professional clothing for interviews, financial counselling (budget management, cash flow management), resume writing and so much more.
Overseas Organization – A Cup For Africa – an organization committed to housing orphans, school program sponsorship, sewing project (training women how to sew and become self sufficient), church partnered outreach providing church service and a meal and more.
