Belinda Allen is a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP), certified professional for Dynamics GP (MCP), and Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT). She is also one of the cofounders of Smith & Allen Consulting, Inc. (www.saci.com), a firm with over 22 years' experience specializing in business intelligence, analytics, and ERP software.
Belinda began implementing ERP systems so long ago that Windows was not an operating system but an application. At that time, larger businesses used mainframes with monitors that projected a green type on black backgrounds, and smaller businesses did their accounting by hand. Having seen the evolution that has taken place over the years from sheets of paper to integrated analytics, Belinda still gets excited every time she helps a business improve.
Belinda is also well known for her blog, www.BelindaTheGPcsi.com. On her blog, she shares really useful information about the product, quickly and succinctly. She has earned the nickname GP CSI because she excels at reviewing GP problems and figuring out what went wrong... and why. With followers from all over the globe, she is able to share knowledge and achieve her mission: "to improve the lives and business success of my followers."
When not delving into GP problems and spearheading business success for clients, Belinda enjoys sailing, crochet/knitting, sewing/quilting, reading, woodturning, and playing the Ukulele (often participating in Ukulele jams in NYC).
