Gary Bratz
Co-Founder, Centsible Experience LLC
Business Operations Manager
My background has been in ASIC chip design for almost 40 years. However, before I embarked on my (BS EE) engineering career, I was a semester and a summer away from also obtaining an Accounting degree. After being in college for almost six years at Texas A&M (probably an Aggie joke somewhere there), it was time to move on in my life when the opportunities arose. I am slowly re-acclimating myself to the debits and credits of the world, and pursuing certifications in various areas including Xero and FreshBooks (for those that prefer a lower price point when compared to the de facto of QuickBooks). While my wife focuses much of her time on the client bookkeeping tasks, I manage the business details of our multiple forays of services being offered, and work with the on-boarding of new clients. We will do our darndest (best) to understand and satisfy your business needs. If you are not successful in your business endeavors, we will not be successful either. We want to help your business succeed!

Co-Founder, Centsible Experience LLC
Bookkeeping Operations Manager
I graduated from the University of Texas at Dallas with a BS in Business Administration. For the past 34 years, I have worked for a nonprofit grant-making foundation in Austin, concentrating on performing monthly accounting/bookkeeping tasks. I’m responsible for preparing the Foundation’s monthly financial reports as well as the end-of-year tax form and payroll. I have a good working knowledge of Sage Peachtree Accounting software and am in the process of becoming certified in QuickBooks. I absolutely love making sure debits/credits balance each month, down to the penny. I would love to help you make “cents” of the financial side while you concentrate on the creative side of your business.
In addition, my husband Gary and I have lived in Austin for over 30 years. We have two daughters (one is studying Forensic Science in Arizona and one is a sophomore in high school). In my free time I love to read, listen to music, and work in my yard.
