Meet the Team
Meet the team that keeps Novel Bookkeepers running. Some may be more qualified than others…
Katelyn
Summer Intern
A fast learner and a real go-getter. Chose to spend her summer break learning bookkeeping, client relations, and small business operations. Her youthful spirit and energy brings curiosity, creativity, and a fresh perspective to the team.
Max
Part-time Security Consultant
A most faithful team member. Investigates every potential threat, sounding alarms when necessary. So far, he has kept us safe from birds, squirrels, rabbits, armadillos, leaves, wind, his imagination, neighbors minding their own business, and even an eerily questionable silence. Prides himself on being a very good boy.
Velcro
Administrative Assistant
In charge of boosting office morale. Inspects office equipment (i.e. keyboard and mouse) often. Always willing to lend a helping paw. Happily accepts back scritches as compensation. Never afraid to be caught taking a cat nap.
Brodie
Lead Security Supervisor
After extensive training from our Head of Security, this good boy has embraced all his new responsibilities. Will alert you to any potential threats by enacting the Bark Tree. Floating plastic bags are no match for this good boy.
The Burny Family
Groundskeeping Crew
Outsourced for pest control operations and perimeter inspections. Works exclusively outdoors and maintains a no meetings policy. Management and Staff agree to maintain respectful distances.
