Mrs. Berrick took that same fighting attitude to her battle against breast cancer, and won. She has been a champion for her clients as well, earning top-notch recommendations from CEOs, CFOs and COOs of leading corporations since the start of her career in 1986.
Lucia's work ethic is unmatched. With a 'roll-up your sleeves' attitude she has been tasked as the "go-to" leader on several projects for companies of all sizes, in all industries.
A practicing Corporate & Public Accountant for over 30 years, Lucia earned Bachelor honors in Accounting and Finance from Rowan University and obtained her honors MBA from Babson College, specializing in Entrepreneurship and Marketing, as well as Accounting to improve her prior accounting acumen. This ensured she was able to properly navigate start-ups she championed into venture capital darlings.
These days Lucia's consulting firm concentrates more exclusively in tax and forensic accounting. Her core industries are Construction, Real Estate and Manufacturing with an acute understanding of 1031 exchanges and maximizing GP.
She has battled for the little guy her entire career. Armed with her Enrolled Agent's license and a proven track record facing the IRS, state agencies and Treasury, she has proven successful compared to CPAs less versed in taxation, or without the tenacity to continue the fight.
ELMC is also giving back by championing a new generation of EAs. Lucia is mentoring through the Florida Society of Enrolled Agents at both the state and Suncoast Chapter levels.
As a team we are demonstrating the need for promoting start-ups by eliciting the aid of data entry contractors, allowing them to grow as the firm grows, and teaching the skills of running one's own destiny on the high seas of business development.
Let EL MALINOWSKI CONSULTING LLC and Lucia Berrick guide your vessel across the finish line to your company's future success.
