Life balance is important but difficult to achieve. Geri Douglas began her accounting career when not many women were accountants and not many women worked after they had a family. During the crucial junction between family life and career, Geri made choices that were, at the time, trailblazing efforts in being able to have both. Geri has helped the unique culture at Larson & Company evolve into one that encourages both family time and career time. Geri has both encouraged and supported other employees in the last 26 years, changing and adapting the work environment to be more flexible.
Thorough accuracy is a hallmark of Geri’s talents as an auditor and partner. Geri’s complete focus on the task at hand is her signature service. Clients of Geri’s are drawn to her lively and caring personality, and her extensive experience in regulated industries makes her a valuable asset. Her insight and mastery of the reporting concerns for companies makes her a top-notch component of Larson & Company. You could say she is an auditor’s auditor – always double-checking every detail, making sure nothing is overlooked.
Enjoying her family is Geri’s favorite activity. She is a supportive wife and mother of three athletic children, as focused on her family at home as she is on work in the office. Competitive by nature, she enjoys watching their games almost as much as her children enjoy playing them. Growing up in Logan, Utah, Geri learned that sometimes the simple things in life are what matter most. Working somewhere that you want to stay forever is one of those simple joys. Being a part of its creation is another.
