Shelly Withers

Director of Finance/HR

Shelly has over fifteen years of experience in accounting and human resources. Her broad experience includes IT administration, HR, web design and accounting/finance, which gives her the ability to see the whole picture and add value in many areas. Working for more than five years for venture capital companies gave her a foundation in financial reporting, key performance indicators and reporting requirements for investors. She is equally comfortable wearing the multiple hats required by small companies and she had the good fortune to be mentored by a former Director of HR for Franklin Covey.

This cumulative experience prepared her for her duties in financial reporting and human resources at Handi Quilter. She was a major contributor to Handi Quilter’s conversion to a more advanced accounting system which has helped them move from a small startup to a professional organization with powerful tracking and reporting tools. Shelly uses her knowledge of software, reporting and financials to successfully complete Handi Quilter's financial audit each year. As the HR Director, she creates policies and procedures for Handi Quilter.

When not at HQ, Shelly competes in the equine sport of reining and was the treasurer of the Intermountain Reining Horse Association for four years. Though not a quilter, Shelly is very artistic and aspires to be an artistic quilter one day.
