Martha Echols CPA

Echols, CPA began her college education at Auburn University studying Civil Engineering and competing on the Track and Field team. After a couple of years she realized engineering was not very interesting to her and she changed her course of study to accounting and transferred to Birmingham-Southern College. She earned a bachelor’s degree in accounting and management in 1986. She began her account

ing career at a large local firm in Birmingham, AL and then moved on to a smaller accounting firm before becoming self-employed. Martha is a Certified Quickbooks Pro Advisor and enjoys assisting small businesses. Being a mother of two boys and working outside the home, she quickly found that being self-employed created a much needed flexible work schedule. Now that the boys are older (22 years old and 13 years old), she still enjoys the flexibility and challenges that come from owning her own business.
