Annette Savino, CPA

I received my Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Long Island University–CW Post in Brookville, New York. I am affiliated with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the New York State Society of CPAs, and the Institute of Management Accountants.

I am a Certified Public Accountant and QuickBooks ProAdvisor with over 30 years of corporate and financial services experience. I have planned, supervised, and conducted audits, reviews, and compilations for clients across various industries. Likewise, I have also been responsible for reviewing and preparing client financial statements and their related disclosures, evaluating internal controls, reviewing general ledger accounting systems, and analyzing balance sheets and profit and loss accounts.

I have also served as the controller of a private equity firm for a major client, where I oversaw quarterly financial reporting, implemented policies and procedures, and managed the personnel within the entire accounting department.

I have worked with numerous clients to prepare their financial statements, establish policies and procedures, reconcile accounts, and perform a wide range of daily accounting functions such as payroll and cash management. I have also worked with nonprofit organizations, functioning as their controller several days a week and handling all accounting functions, including posting cash receipts and disbursements, reconciling ten separate cash accounts, preparing management reports, and working closely with external auditors during annual audits. Furthermore, I played an instrumental role in cleaning up financial records and supporting a successful audit process.

I also work with various school districts in Nassau and Suffolk County, providing interim accounting support as well as weekly, monthly, quarterly, and year-end services. I have developed policies and procedures for month-end and year-end closing, assisted with bank reconciliations, grants, capital, and BOCES reconciliations, and prepare financial statements and Form ST-3 reports and other reporting requirements. In addition I also perform general ledger reviews, train school district staff, support interim staffing needs, and assist with cash flows, budgeting, and more.
