Melissa’s career started when she graduated from Marquette University and started working as a general ledger accountant for a marketing company. She and her husband moved to Oklahoma in 1999, where she started doing payroll accounting for an airline. 9/11 caused a significant downturn for the airlines, so she found a position doing inventory accounting for an oil & gas company until they moved headquarters to Houston. From there, she worked for a midstream company doing gas plant settlement accounting, and found that she really enjoyed it! When that company moved out of state, she worked for a few different companies doing revenue and inventory accounting, but she was not excited about what I was doing. An opportunity to do gas plant settlement accounting came along, so she decided to see where it led— she started working for The Resource Company, which was later merged with Eddye Dreyer to create PetroLedger, in 1999. She has really enjoyed working with different clients and creating the different setups they need.
