Senior Administrative & Client Services Coordinator
"My favorite part of my job is building up our team and making our clients feel taken care of."
Call Maria when you need a meeting scheduled, onboarding started, or an update on where something stands. The first point of contact between clients and the advisory team, she follows up so nothing slips through the cracks.
What Maria values most is supporting the people around her. She takes pride in building up the team and watching each person thrive, because she knows a well-supported team is what delivers the best experience for every client.
Background
Maria brings eight years of administrative experience across accounting, nonprofits, construction, and compliance-driven environments. Most recently she was a Tax Coordinator at a CPA firm, where she managed a high-volume client workload and kept every account on track against tight filing deadlines. Before that, she tracked government contracts from start to finish as a project assistant.
Her first tax season as a Tax Coordinator showed her what a reliable point of contact is worth. In the three months before April 15, she helped process more than 500 client accounts, following up on rejected e-filed returns and working with preparers to collect missing information so no client was left wondering where things stood.
She was drawn to The Garabedian Group for its reputation for client engagement and its Results-Only Work Environment. Her goal is for every client to feel supported and informed from their first call to their year-end review, and she takes just as much pride in supporting the team behind them.
