SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif., May 25, 2010 –
OptionEase® Inc., the leader in on-demand software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications for fair-market-value accounting and compliance, today announced Lisa Robinson has joined OptionEase as director of professional services. Robinson has two decades of experience in accounting and related technologies. She brings a deep understanding of how to manage control functions while also working with senior leadership to tackle tough business issues, such as Sarbanes Oxley projects, financial reporting and systems implementations.
Robinson has held senior-level roles in accounting and finance in companies including First Interstate Bank Corporation; Orbital Sciences, Inc; Tosco (acquired by Conoco Phillips) and Peregrine Systems. In her most recent position, Robinson was an OptionEase customer, and it was her experience with OptionEase solutions that ultimately piqued her interest in working for the company.
“Lisa knows firsthand the challenges financial officers face, the solutions and support they need, and the struggles with which they most require help,” said Kim Kovacs, OptionEase CEO. “Lisa found that as a controller, she couldn’t find any solution that helped her as much as OptionEase did, and we know she will bring a unique perspective to our customer service and support efforts.”
"OptionEase’s strength lies not only in its unmatched technology, but also in its deep, knowledgeable support for users,” said Robinson. “We want to be partners with our customers whether they are small accounting firms in need of extra hands, expertise and guidance; or large companies with extensive internal staff looking to streamline equity management. We help them all navigate the complex regulatory landscape, and I am pleased to be leading that effort."
