Jared Burke

Jared Burke

Jared Burke, our Managing Partner, drives strategic vision and manages overall operations. As the Director of Operations, he is at the helm daily keeping our ship moving fast and steady. When he isn’t managing our ship he is at home, trying to manage with 4 children. Don’t worry he has an amazing wife, Desiree, that helps him. Some of our fondest GVO memories are ones where he has “found” himself behind a piano making up tunes about days in the office or just life in general. He does have a knack for playing music, and he is like a bloodhound when it comes to finding pianos. Always at the right place at the right time.

Jared Burke

Dirk Shimpach, CPA

You won’t find any giant executive offices or top floors at GVO and Founder Dirk likes it that way. His to-do list is probably one of the longest but that’s what good leaders do right? From Sales and Marketing Strategy to being on so many NetSuite advisory boards and panels. He is 1 part CPA, 1 part mentor and 2 parts dad, 1 part NetSuite Ninja…too many parts? Well, I told you he has a lot on his plate. Sometimes too much, but when that happens he just busts out an Expo whiteboard marker and paints a masterpiece. It’s almost like a scene from A Beautiful Mind, you know that math genius, just with a different ending. His ideal end of the day would be spending with his family and freinds, going for bike ride, fishing or even hitting a bucket of balls at the driving range or taking on the whole course. It just depends on what day of the week.

  • Operations
With experts in nearly every facet of NetSuite, this team speaks fluent technology and business. Their job is to make every project successful from your first implementation to the final tweak. We operate in teams of 2-3 consultants and the team assigned to your implementation will often be the same team that does additional work and support for your software.
They say “give credit where credit is due” and this team deserves a lot. They keep things running smoothly and keep our group of experts moving full speed ahead. Handling everything from corporate training to internal systems to time & billing, this group is a big reason goVirtualOffice is recognized repeatedly for on-time and on-budget delivery.
Finding developers that understand business, aren’t afraid of a phone call, and also know how to write high-quality code is much like searching for sasquatch in 10,000 acres of woods. No Big Foot sightings yet, but we’ve found a team of developers that fit the bill. They love solving problems, building applications, and most of all, using their skillset to help your business.
This team is not about a quick sale or a quota. We are a team with years and years of ERP experience. We take a very consultative approach and help guide our clients through the murky ERP waters. Our goal is to earn your trust and keep it “long-term”!
Business Software is the nervous system of your business, it touches everything. That’s why every client is assigned a Senior Business Consultant from our Client Success team that knows your industry and get's to know your business. These are the “doctors” that will be there for every project to make sure your software works for your business – now and forever. And our Client Account Manager will be there to help you navigate software purchases and renewals.

Aaron Thompson

Aaron Thompson

Aaron learned in a previous position just how important getting the implementation of NetSuite right the first time is. He is a self-taught NetSuite navigator so he understands so many struggles our clients face. He spent many years in corporate finance and in the financial industry, so he really can relate to our clients and deliver value. He loves spending time with his wife and 3 children and when time allows he hits the golf course. Although some days it feels like the course hits him, as his results don't really match his love for the sport.

Andy Zinkle

Andy Zinkle

With over 19 years working in the business world before joining GVO, Andy joined us 4 years ago and leads a team that focuses on the execution of NetSuite. From personalization, through design, configuration and development he is there. He has always enjoyed learning how things work and implementing little tips and tricks with our customers to help them improve the technical aspects of their business. When he isn’t busy with all of his kids' extracurricular activities you can find them on a hike, cheering on their favorite team or on the golf course.

Brian Viola

Brian Viola

 
Brian Viola

Brian Viola

Our clients will work with Brian at the beginning and throughout their implementation cycle. He really enjoys leveraging the flexibility of NetSuite to help clients streamline and automate workflows and business processes. After work, you can find him coaching wrestling or hanging out with family and friends. He likes to go fishing but usually gets out-fished. He doesn't mind though, the memories are the best catch of the day! He loves watching his kids reel in a big walleye or pan fish! That is enough reward.

Caleb Wunderlin

Caleb Wunderlin

 
Caleb Wunderlin

Caleb Wunderlin

Caleb is often found helping with implementations with data importing, configuration, and general support. He is passionate about learning more about NetSuite and how it can help businesses run efficiently. When he isn’t at the office you can find him watching or playing sports. Sometimes he gets time to get out on the lake to do a little jigging. No not that kind of jigging, he likes to bass fish.

Chrissy Allard

 

Chrissy Allard

Chrissy brings a broad range of experience from working at a 9 billion dollar wholesale distributor to working most recently at 2 startups. She has worn every hat on the rack from graphic designer to Marketing Director. She is passionate about helping businesses run efficiently and lean while watching them scale and grow. When she isn’t writing killer lines of copy or creating campaigns you can find her enjoying the great outdoors or cooking up a feast. She has 3 little sous-chefs that help her prep and they would say her signature dish is spaghetti and meatballs. She would tell you otherwise.

Corey Mandt

Cory Mandt

 
Corey Mandt

Cory Mandt

Cory started his programming career at Lands’ End managing and deploying content for their e-commerce website. It was during this time that he became so partial to the programming side of web development. He loves simplifying business processes and developing solutions for our clients that helps them gain time back in their days. When he isn’t adding sand in the hourglass, he is spending time with his wife and two dogs.

Craig Haroldson

Craig Haroldson

Craig Haroldson

Craig is a Senior Application Architect and spends his days designing and building customizations in NetSuite. He loves seeing the positive impact it has on our clients' businesses and is a natural when it comes to solving problems. He also likes fishing and camping, another area that requires a good problem solver. He solves most camping problems by adding electricity, plumbing, and a screened-in porch (since our state bird is a mosquito). He also brews his own beer. Another problem solved!

Dan Lawver

Dan Lawer

 
Dan Lawver

Dan Lawer

Dan is another one of our Software Engineers that loves helping our clients succeed. He can be found doing smaller scripting projects and advanced PDFs for various solutions. He enjoys spending time with his wife and 3 kids. They keep him pretty busy but if he gets to pick the activity for the night he would pick to watch a movie, play a game or go for a run.

Danielle Ihland

Danielle Ihland

 
Danielle Ihland

Danielle Ihland

Danielle is our Accounting and Office Manager, she said her job is best described as “collecting money and signatures". There you have it, folks. She also is one of the first people you will meet when you are hired here. She has written a riveting novel called the “employee handbook”. It's a real page-turner. She loves for you to autograph it and return the back page to her. When she isn’t keeping us in line, she is working on keeping her 3 kids alive at home. She loves spending time with them and since she is the world's greatest mom she threw in a puppy to the mix. She is quite the overachiever at the office and at home, but we love her for that! She is great at multitasking, try potty training a puppy and a two-year-old. She's done it!

Desiree Burke

Desiree Burke

 
Desiree Burke

Desiree Burke

If you ever hear about our Dodgeville office, that is where you'll find Desiree. She loves helping the office run in tip-top shape. She is Office Administrator by day and EMT by night! So it is safe to say we are getting a real bargain with her! Not only is the office in good shape if anything happens she is already right here to save the day. She doesn't get to keep the ambulance on site, but it sure is comforting knowing she is here and certified to save lives. When she isn’t at the office she is at home with her 4 kids and husband. You can’t tell me her EMT Degree has not come in handy there either. So moral of the story, get yourself a hero.

Dirk Shimpach, CPA

 

Dirk Shimpach, CPA

He has 20 plus years of experience working with all kinds of businesses big and small, multiple industries- LOTS of experience to draw from. Ask him questions he is in your corner when you need him. Have a tough question? He has an answer, and he won’t sugar coat it. He is a straight shooter. I have seen him turn business away because he isn’t here to make a sale. He is here to advise and guide. If he doesn’t think it will work or if it isn’t in your best interest, he will tell you.

What might surprise you, however, is what he won’t tell you. He isn’t a-know-it-all but he is a great listener and quiet thinker. Sort of our GVO secret weapon. When you go through your evaluation, his wheels are spinning and devising the path of least resistance to get your company up and running with an ERP. When there is a snag or a problem he doesn’t know he has an arsenal of talent behind him, ready and willing to help.

Emily Rihn

Emily Rihn

 
Emily Rihn

Emily Rihn

Emily is the first smiling face you will see when you enter our offices. She sets the tone for us all as we walk through the door with her charm. She is quite the utility player when it comes to her duties, she does everything from invoicing to coordinating fun events for the team. So we have her to thank for the fond memories we all share. When she isn’t in the office you can find her out hiking, playing with her dog, or checking out a local brewery.

Emily Shimpach

 

Emily Shimpach

Emily has the title of Marketing Administrator, but she can handle pretty much anything that gets thrown over the fence. She keeps us moving toward the goal line, with her can-do attitude. She loves learning new things and the relationships and fun atmosphere at GVO. When she isn’t at work you can find her on the trails taking a hike with her two daughters and husband, Dirk. Yes, the Dirk that works at GVO. I wonder if there is another Dirk? No, can’t be more than one out there, they wouldn’t allow it.

Greg Lindner

Greg Lindner

 
Greg Lindner

Greg Lindner

Greg is responsible for solution design, script creation, and review of completed code and also helps with support for junior level software engineers. He loves problem-solving and a good challenge. So if you ever see him deep in thought he is probably working out one of our client's problems in his head or playing guitar. No really, Heather got him a shirt that literally says that. "You might think I'm listening to you, but in my mind, I'm playing guitar." He also loves to play racquetball which has to be pretty entertaining to watch. He is pretty entertaining all around.

Heather Kotletski

Heather Kotleski

 
Heather Kotletski

Heather Kotleski

Heather is passionate about problem-solving and realized she loved working with software in a previous career where she helped implement CRM software for a pharmaceutical company. She landed at GVO and we put her talents to work, she is there in the first steps of managing the data from our clients' historical data into NetSuite. When she isn’t knee-deep in data she loves going out to new restaurants and breweries. Traveling is also high on her favorites list! Costa Rica was her last destination and she highly recommends that as your next adventure. Insider Tip: While you're there pay no attention to the giant lizards that walk up while you are suntanning. They live there too.

Jamie Zdriok

Jamie Zdriok

Jamie Zdroik

Jamie is one of our Senior Business Consultants that helps our clients navigate through internal processes and helps to improve them. He is great at identifying gaps and determining the best path for them to take to achieve their goals through the use of technology. He really enjoys bringing order to chaos, which explains why he also likes helping his daughter in her extracurricular activities such as Girl Scouts and drama. Yes, you read that correctly. So if you need some cookies or help with resuming order in a chaotic environment, give him a call. That’s all.

Jeff brings over 18 years of enterprise software experience in marketing, sales, and business development to GVO. Listening is Jeff’s #1 task. His role is to understand a client’s business; their pains and challenges and share how goVirtualOffice and NetSuite can bring long-term value to their organization. When he isn’t out running around town with his family, (seriously, he is a masters-level track and field runner) you can find him coaching youth basketball or track. I am not sure if he tried out for Forest Gump, but he can run. Run, Jeff, run.

Jen Hasburgh

Jennifer Hasburgh

 
Jen Hasburgh

Jennifer Hasburgh

Jen helps with project planning, process engineering, exception design, and account configurations. She also provides client training and ongoing support after implementation. She loves helping clients find resolutions to any issues they have. Outside of GVO you can find Jen out horsing around. She has a draft horse named Cecelia that is her partner in crime. She isn’t up to no good though, she seems to have a knack for helping distressed or abandoned animals. Another good person to know in case you come across a bird with a broken wing! Don’t try this at home, leave it to the professionals, this isn't their first rodeo. So clients or wildlife rescue, she knows a thing or two.

Katie Biechler

 

Katie Biechler

Katie is one of our Application Specialists who started working in NetSuite at her family business for over 6 years and loved how many problems it could solve. She loves the variety of her day and all the creative solutions there are to help our clients succeed. During your implementation she is there to hear your needs, configure the system, and helps with the implementation process. When she isn’t configuring and executing, implementations you can find her spending time with her husband and dog Murphy. She also loves to cheer on the Packers at Lambeau field any chance she has.

Kody Brand

Kody Brand

 
Kody Brand

Kody Brand

Since graduating from the University of Wisconsin - Platteville, Kody has been coding “things” as he says. He definitely embraces a work hard, play hard mentality, and appreciates the family atmosphere at GVO. “The partners are very involved and really do care about all of us.” When he isn’t up to his ears in code he can be found hanging out on the boat, riding motorcycles, and flying airplanes (wait...what?). Yeah... just confirmed he wasn't talking about paper airplanes. He's a legit Pilot, too.

Larry Owen

Larry Owen

 
Larry Owen

Larry Owen

Larry is one of our Software Engineers. He is busy every day working on new or existing functionality for our clients. When he isn’t working on making things work better for our clients you can find him horsing around with guitars or cars. Currently, he is saving up for his dream car ‘71 Olds Cutlass to match his '71 Les Paul custom guitar. If you ask him what he likes about working at GVO he will say EVERYTHING! I think he loves the impromptu breakouts of song or music at the end of a workday or the infamous Christmas parties.

Leah Lipska

Leah Lipska

 
Leah Lipska

Leah Lipska

Leah is the final test for our software to pass before implementing it with our clients. So she thinks of all the ways to test the systems we have put in place. Her checks and balances help us ensure that the client will not have to waste time troubleshooting. When she isn't checking our work she is out volunteering in her community. Whether it is on the Mount Horeb Board of Education or helping manage her son's soccer team, she is ready to help.

Mark Mueller

Mark Mueller

 
Mark Mueller

Mark Mueller

Mark has a background in Operations and Supply Chain Management and heads up our Application and Client Success teams. His goal is to help his teams grow and provide the best client experience we can. He is also busy improving our processes and helps direct strategic objectives. When he isn’t helping us grow bigger, faster, and stronger as a team you can find him on top of a mountain. No literally, he has the best view from his office. Why? Because he lives in Colorado. He often brags about it while we are experiencing sub-zero temperatures here in Wisconsin. Don’t get me wrong he is a super nice guy, just don’t strike up a conversation about the weather. It will leave you asking yourself why you live where you do. So just take it from me-ask him about his dogs, not the weather.

Nate Bartlett

Nate Bartlett

 
Nate Bartlett

Nate Bartlett

Nate is a Software Engineer who is driven by the opportunities when he can write elegant (his words, not mine) and efficient code that solves a complex problem for a business and brings massive ROI. Who wouldn’t get excited about driving results and adding to our clients' bottomline? That seems to be the core of every thread in the GVO fabric that ties us all together. When he isn’t writing code for GVO, he can be found composing and performing music as well as spending time with his two children.

Nate Tucker

Nate Tucker

 
Nate Tucker

Nate Tucker

Nate steps in when we are ready to “Go Live” and implement NetSuite with clients. He is there for them every step of the way and helps them with training and general support. He is pretty talented with taking challenging problems and deriving a solution within the software. Victory for him is when he mitigates a major hurdle for our clients and results in improvements in productivity and profitability. So yeah he is another great guy to have on our team. He loves technology and working in the cloud. When his head is out of the cloud, he likes to play card games, watch movies and grab his clubs for a quick 18 holes. Efficiency doesn’t stop when he leaves the office, it follows him everywhere. Yes, he uses a cart, who doesn’t on 18? Where do you put your drink?

Patrick Donahue

Patrick Donahue

 
Patrick Donahue

Patrick Donahue

Patrick is our guy on the inside, training and onboarding our new talent so they know the ins and outs of NetSuite. He is our internal resource dedicated to continually improving systems and increasing our efficiency. This creates that ripple effect and it extends all the way to you, our clients , and helps us run on all cylinders. When he isn’t solving our problems and we let him take a break you can find him attending concerts downtown or spending time with his puppy. Have you seen the Winter Olympics? You know that sport called curling? Yeah, he is pretty good at that, too.

Rafay Ahmad

 

Rafay Ahmad

Rafay is a Business System and Application Specialist with over 5 years of experience in healthcare, biotechnology, and information technology industries. He is a lifelong learner so working at GVO suits him as we all push each other to be our best. When he isn’t crunching code he is crushing it at CrossFit and loves to travel!

Renee Linscheid

Renee Linscheid

 
Renee Linscheid

Renee Linscheid

Renee is a Senior Business Consultant who, in previous roles, worked as an Inventory Analyst and Material Planner for Promega followed by a Purchasing and Production Manager for Precision Devices, Inc.. Then she then spent 14 years at Lands' End helping lead their strategy for Global Sourcing. Working in numerous areas: Senior Inventory Analyst, Manager Global Sourcing Strategic Initiatives, and a Business Lead for the ERP Implementation. So yeah, she has quite a bit of experience to draw from. She plays a large role with our clients that are in retail and warehouse distribution. When she isn’t at her desk, she is off at many other desks, serving as President of the School District Board of Education or being a board member of CESA. She has also been known to coach her kids in their activities, but prefers to cheer from the bleachers. No matter where she is, she loves helping teams utilize the tools at their fingertips, whether that is technology or a new strategy on the field. With Renee on our team, success isn't far behind no matter what the task.

Tammy Lauritzen

Tammie Lauritzen

 
Tammy Lauritzen

Tammie Lauritzen

Throughout your implementation, if you have any questions related to electronic payments, fixed assets, foreign currency, or tax setups, Tammie is your girl. She is ready to sort through it all and come up with a solution. When she isn’t helping our clients she is spending time with her family and crafting. She has many creative outlets, one is creating custom drinkware that is adorned with glitter and inspirational messages. I think she uses the glitter to follow the trail back to where she left it last. Just kidding, she doesn't leave a trail of glitter, that would drive people crazy. Have you ever tried to clean up glitter? It’s impossible. Well, maybe not for Tammie.

Terry Nelson

Terry Nelson

 
Terry Nelson

Terry Nelson

Terry is one of our Senior Business Consultants who has over two decades of Marketing experience and understands the value of “one source of truth”. He came to GVO to help businesses flourish by helping companies connect all the dots without over complicating things. When he isn’t simplifying things for our clients you can find him at the golf course, waiting for his scores to decrease with each round he plays. He may be waiting a while, I don’t think that is as easy to implement in a 100 days especially in Wisconsin.

Todd Parrish

Todd Parrish

 
Todd Parrish

Todd Parrish

Todd is a Senior Business Consultant whose goal is to know your business well so that he can pinpoint opportunities to gain efficiencies and streamline processes. Our client’s businesses, issues, and goals are like a giant jigsaw puzzle he can help put together. Before coming to GVO he was putting bigger puzzles together in the Construction Battalion in the Navy. He spent 8 years in the Navy, but never spent one day on a ship. How did he manage that? He was part of a group called the Seabees, a Construction Battalion, which had the motto "We Build, We Fight, Can Do." Although, no longer a part of the Seabees, that Can Do spirit still remains.

Torm Hustvet

Torm Hustvet

 
Torm Hustvet

Torm Hustvet

Torm is passionate about training and enabling clients to be successful. He has a lot of experience with third party integration tools and error handling, mapping data to support commerce, CRM and order management (check, check). He has quite a few tools on his tool belt, but I would say his transparency tops the charts. “No matter how well we may configure and/or automate the system, if we cannot enable the client to be self sustaining and to understand their system then they still struggle to be successful.” Our clients really appreciate that as well as his knack for saved searches and reports. When he isn’t helping our clients you can find him in the middle of nowhere, no really, he has been camping in over 20 of our National Parks.

Zoran Vasiljevic

Zoran Vasiljevic

 
Zoran Vasiljevic

Zoran Vasiljevic

Off the record, I would say Zoran was trying to kiss up to all of us when he said he has brilliant co-workers, but we all agree he is pretty brilliant himself. He is working daily on hands to keyboard configurations in client accounts, system support, and project planning. He is passionate about helping businesses become more efficient, productive, and profitable with the help of ERP software. When he isn’t saving our clients' time and money, he is out saving puppies. Yeah, you heard me right. He fosters dogs, street life to sweet life because of his generosity in sharing his time and home with those little orphans. How can you not love him after that! So, yeah we’re gonna keep him.
