Rose attended Kalamazoo Valley Community College to pursue a business and accounting degree. She soon married, put her career goals on hold to start a family, and successfully raised two beautiful children, Amber and Joey. When not managing the household and children, Rose’s passion for helping others led her to serve in the homeless and domestic dispute resolution program. A few years later, Rose returned to the working world and held office management and administration positions. Fast forward to 2012, Rose joined the Valley Oak team and currently is the senior administrator at our Kalamazoo office. She is the perfect conduit between clients and our accountants and holds the reins as the firm’s go-to person to keep things running smoothly. Rose splits her summers between Kalamazoo and Ludington, where she loves spending time on her boat with her family and teaching her two grandchildren, Eli and Adelyn, the ways of lake life.
